So then i finished booting up the computer and went in to my computer and saw that it reconized the drive was there  so then i put in a floppy that i knew worked. and it read it and ran it. So i used that disk and others and just fished around looking what was on these disks. So then i started it up again the next day and it worked fine. But the third time i went to boot up the system it booted normally but then i went to run the disk, and with the disk in the drive it cave me an air warning of B: is not accesible. The device is not ready. Which is the responce you normally get when you have no disk in the drive. So then i tried unistalling and re intalling the drive and nothing worked. So then i put the drive back in the computer i got it out of and it worked and read the disks fine. So do you know why it would of stoped and what i could do to fix it?\n<\/td><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"iawp_total_views":88},"question-category":[],"question_tags":[],"class_list":["post-432","question","type-question","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question\/432","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/question"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=432"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=432"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"question-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question-category?post=432"},{"taxonomy":"question_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question_tags?post=432"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
