Greetings.
My internal floppy A drive is checking for information at just about every
access I request to my C drive. I noticed the additional checks, but since
they were short in time, I didn't do anything about it. But now that I wish
to do a full virus scan using installed software, the floppy drive is
constantly banging around during the successful scan of the C drive. I made
sure to select only C drive to be scanned. Within the past month, I've
added a few software installations which may be the problem, but I have no
restore points beyond 4 days ago. Is there something I can do to change
(reset) the drive to act as it should without having to work backwards by
uninstalling programs?
Thank you so kindly.
Kevin
