A lot of drives could slowly win98?
If a drive is not being used it will have no effect on your system other
than taking up a small amount of RAM for the driver. However you should check that the drives that are flagged as removable are not set to provide an auto-insert notification. Look in the device details in device manager. Also make sure that any process running in the background, such as your anti-virus, is not trying to access non-existent drives. If your system is slow when doing a specific task, such as opening a Save As dialogue window, then that could indicate the system thinks that some drives are available when they aren't. -- Jeff Richards MS MVP (Windows - Shell/User) "FRANZ" wrote in message ...
