Hi
This floppy drive access is a bug in Win2k (and prior OS versions)
that has been fixed in Windows XP and later. Run your script from a
Windows XP/Win2k3 computer instead and see if it helps on the speed.
If using a Windows XP/Win2k3 computer is not an option, you might be
able to rewrite the script so it doesn't access the floppy also on a
Win2k computer:
