Default Error 02B3 Incorrect type for Drive B - Run Setup

Hi,
I am running Win '98 SE and when booting up the unit, I
get the error BEFORE windows attempts to start telling me
tha tI have an error 02B3 - Incorrect Drive Type for
Drive B - Run Setup. I then have to hit the esc key to
continue. After that the computer runs perfectly fine.
This error is just annoying.

I have gone to the Bios setup and the drive B is disabled
(no other option).

What else can I do ? I have looked into the Autoexec.bat
& config.sys files with no luck. I am out of options...

Please help if you can steer me in the right direction...

Larry H.

"B" is the letter generally reserved for a second floppy. However, I
have read that another device, perhaps it was a Zip Disk, can set itself
up to be "B". Do you have one?

Also, "Control Panel, System, Device Manager tab". Do you have any
red/yellow ?'s/!'s on any of the icons?

Thanks or Good Luck,
There may be humor in this post, and,
Naturally, you will not sue,
should things get worse after this,
