Distorted Vision

I have a strange problem on my Vista Ultimate edition installation. Every
now and again I have a session where there is continuous random accesses to
the floppy disk drive. There are no dialogue boxes open so I have no idea
whats causing it.

Anyone got any ideas?

Many thanks.
 
Hi,

Check the settings in your antivirus software. If it's doing periodic
automatic scans, it's likely including that drive. Most have an option to
exclude removable drives from automatic scanning.
