Floppy A problem

Question

If I right click the floppy A icon on my desktop I get an error message: 06:0028:00000000. Also if I go to my computer and click on floppy A and hit file in an attempt to format a disk I get the same error message on a blue screen. Hitting enter restores my desktop. Windows ME on a Dell 4100. Device manager lists it as standard floppy A controller with no conflicts and the best driver is already installed. Thanks Kelly

kbsmith9, Thank you for using the Dell Community Forum. If you have any antivirus software or firewalls installed you can disable them to see if the floppy wil work.
