Technical Help / *COMPLETED* Wording on shut down
« on: Monday 23 June 08 04:38 BST (UK) »
Hi,
Hope someone out there can help me with a problem.
Up until four months ago I was using Norton Internet Security, and I was forever having major problems with it i.e. the program was telling me that my emails weren't sent, error messages popping up, computer was forever freezing for up to an hour. I also learnt that Norton took up too much disc space.
A friend removed Norton, and replaced it with NOD32 antivirus system, downloaded Adware and at the same time put on Microsoft Excel (from their own cd). Yeah, I thought, joy at last until the computer started freezing again, but not as much as it did with Norton, maybe only about 10mins.
On closing the computer after they had gone, up popped this message in a warning box:
"The Drive is not ready. Its doors may be opened. Please check Drive A. Make sure a disc is inserted and that the drive door is closed"
There are three little boxes underneath 1: is Retry 2: (escapes me) 3: close. I usually click on No 3. Othertimes, I just end up switching off at the computer instead of letting it shut down.
Is there anyway I can get rid of this?
