Floppy and CDROM LED on all time and can't use

[Herbert Chan]

Hello,

My sister has the other day inserted a floppy with rubber band into the
floppy drive and the disk was than stuck there. Afterwards, she managed to
get the floppy out (in what way I don't know) but she's found out that the
LED for floppy and CDROM now are on all the time, and she cannot use both
drives. She can still boot into the system (win2k).

So what's wrong? I think there must be something that's been hit loose or
plugged wrongly. Hope someone can let me know what to look for before I go
over to her place.

Thanks.

Herbert

Trade your sister in for a working computer.
