Hi
Ran in to a strange problem, when trying to access either
cd-rom drives or even floppy drive I get a message "Disk
not formatted, do you wish to format now..."
Thus the cd drives won´t read any media.
I reinstalled win2k but it didn´t help, during
installation both cd drives worked fine?

Anyone had this problem and maybe a solution

Thanks

Having the same issues. Looking into it, will post fix if
I find it.

This a symptom of the Blaster worm IIRC.

Does this occur in safe mode?
It sounds like there may be an issue with filter drivers from cdburning
software.
