Yes, that says floppy craziness.

I'm a student and I installed Database 10g Enterprise on Windows Server 2003. Install went fine, but soon thereafer I noticed the floppy drive was seeking every 30 seconds or so, for no reason that I can account and there is no disk in the drive. This "server" runs nothing else right now except rarely file serve a couple folders to my home network.

I thought, whaaaa? Surely this doesn't have anything to do with Oracle, despite the coincidence. Eventually, however, I ran out of options and unistalled oracle and, you guessed it, the floppy drive quit seeking.

What in the world could be causing this? Received on Fri Dec 17 2004 - 20:47:12 CST
