I recently tried to back up a file on disk but realized everytime I tried to use my A drive my os would freeze. I checked the performance in system and found this. Drive A is using an MS-DOS compatibility mode file system I clicked details and it gave my a pretty useless explanation: If you only see the message Drive X is using an MS-DOS compatibility mode file system on one drive, that drive is using an MS-DOS compatibility (real-mode) driver, which may reduce that drive’s performance. Contact your hardware manufacturer to see if an updated driver is available for your drive. If not, the drive’s performance may be less than optimal, but you can still use it. <-- (no I can't :-Þ) I figured since it was in dos mode I could atleast still back up my files in dos. Wrong I couldn't even access my A drive (floppy) in dos. My second conclusion was it must be the hardware, its broken. I bought a new 1 and it came up with the same thing. Any help to shed some light on my porblem appreciated. Thanx!

Drive X is using an MS-DOS compatibility mode file system. WHAT DO I DO TO RESOLVE THIS PROPBLEM. SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE FLOPPAY DISK. HOW DO I DISSCONNECT THE A DRIVE, I DONT WANT IT ATTACHED TO THE COMPUTER
