Have you tried putting a diskette in the drive, so
it could perform the operation that it is wanting to
perform ? Although, according to the second part of the
message, it does not sound like it is trying to address to
floppy drive.

Did you check what NT service utilizes the cisvc.exe program? Having to
look at the properties of each service listed in the Services applet can
be nuisancesome. You can look under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services; there is a cisvc
subkey. This shows it is the "Indexing Service" service.

Do you really need this service always running? I have mine set to
Manual mode since I don't need it wasting resources and consuming CPU
cycles for a feature that I don't need since I'm not running a file
server. If you really need to have this service running all the time,
use the Computer Management MMC applet (compmgmt.msc) to check what
catalogs you have defined for the Indexing Service. Maybe you have a
catalog defined on a floppy drive.
