Did you check the settings in the BIOS? Have you scanned
for a virus? Have you open the case and checked to see that
all the power and ribbon cables are connected?
Have you checked the Device Manager? Does anybody besides
yourself have physical access to the machine?
Do you have friend who is close enough to examine the
computer and has the skill to troubleshoot for you?
Have you used the Device Manager to remove the floppy and
CD-RW drive and then rebooted. The system should identify
the drives as "new hardware" and reinstall them with the
proper drivers.

| Both my CD and Floppy Drives aren't working. I doubt it's
because they've

less than a year

Floppy, I get an

disk, it freezes up

going out at the same

the only 2 ways I

source, since I also

impossible for me to

advice anyone can give
