floppy disc drive « Posted: 06 August 2011 at 10:22 PM »
tonight when put my computer on. I was confronted with a notice saying that a floppy disc drive was being installed. Drive A is now there. I don't even have a slot for floppy discs. Can I get rid of it.

Did you plug in a USB stick?  Sometimes the PC will get confused and think its a floppy drive.
