202759 2003-12-24 09:11:00 Ok I have just started having a problem, in that everytime I minimise a window the a:\ light comes on

Any idea

Thanks Nigel

202760 2003-12-24 12:23:00 It pays to state what OS you have when asking questions like this.
When you last used Explorer had you been accessing the A: drive. It does sound a little odd.

Yes, I get this too sometimes (XP Home). Every now and again when I access a folder (no one in particular), the a: drive does a little "fart". Seems to be when there is a demand on the system to perform its miracles like if its a folder with lots of pictures in. If I remember rightly, it may have started when I had a disc in the A drive and didn't close the A drive folder before I removed the disc. Could be wrong though.
Merry Xmas
