It grinds the disk (burps) on a regular basis. I have never timed it but it seems to do it every couple of minutes. It did it just a minute ago when i started typing this message. it even does it when i turn the autoboot off and load a program from floppy, it does it while i'm playing games or anything. I would say between 5 and 10mins apart. i always just figured the drive was initializing itself or something... |Chuck Teschke | |---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | USENET:chuckt@theborg.mlb.fl.us |"If i have 5 megs of RAM, then why does | FIDONET: 374/1 | this program keep accessing the disk?!?" |---------------------------------------------------------------------------- "My employer could care less about my opinions..."
