CD ROM / floppy drive probs:
« on: February 04, 2005, 12:23:10 PM »
Just  added Microsoft anti-spyware and ad-aware software to my PC, now the previously working CR ROM, CD R/W and floppy (all separate units) won't read. They are still powered (you can hear the drives working), but no data being read (dialogue box saying unformatted disc loaded). Any ideas?

    Hello, how are you? Which Operating system you are using and which drive you have?
    Is the message "unformatted disk loaded" also come from CD Drive or it is the case with floppy.
    Secondly try it with different CD or floppy.
    If you have still problems uninstall the software you have just installed i-e anti-spyware and then check it?

    Take care of you and others and dont worry.
    Bye...:)
