It sounds like maybe you lost your settings in your BIOS.
Is your system clock also off?  If your system is old enough
for the battery to have run down (say, three years or so?), then
it may need a new battery.  If the battery goes down, and you
lose your bios settings, then all sorts of odd things can happen
all the sudden on a system that was previously working well.

You probably need to supply us with more particulars on your
system.

Subject: [PCSOFT] Wants disk in A at boot


For the last week or two, when I restart my PC, it comes up with an error
"There is no disk in Drive A" (Abort, Retry, Ignore).  I don't recall any
major changes around that time.  I tried turning off the "floppy disk"
checking on my virus scan (InoculateIT); that didn't matter.
Any ideas why it's doing this?
