The more I use WinUAE and AROS the more pukey windows seems
i started out using Amiga and I'm always reminded how dumb windows is when i have to use it. and i keep my system very clean and it's basically problem free. but that's because I'm parnoid and don't install programs on it or do anything that could possibly cause it problems.

one always feels freer with amiga. i'm willing to experiment with amiga.

I do think this present problem (to get back to the topic) has to do with a program that had accessed the floppy and then was closed - thus it "remembers" the floppy. look at all the programs that are running on boot up and see what's up with their prefs, or where they are expecting to load something.

yup, windows is dumb!
