It has been a little while since I last used the Win 98 computer so it is hard to remember, but looking at the folder tree in Windows Explorer a W "drive" would sometimes appear (sort of like a ghost :p). If I remember correctly it would be underneath the CD drive or thereabouts. If I tried clicking on it I *think* nothing would happen, that it went nowhere.

It was a bit of a mystery, but like I said before I just ignored it.

Bless her cotton sox, not that the computer has cotton sox. (how does Vanessa keep her feet warm you may ask?)

When looking in the file manager, there is sometimes a drive "w" that is (by memory) a non exsistant drive that has no content, and tends to apear after a do things with the CDrom. It is just a minor annoyance, and like many things in resent time, it is simply best ignored. Clicking on the drive letter icon produces silly errors.
