I have a problem with the Floppy on a new NT install.

I did "something" (possibly TweakUI / Explorer changes!) Later I found
that the a: drive is not accessible. I get an error box saying 
[A:\ is not accessible The parameter is incorrect]

There is nothing wrong with the hardware - a "backup" NT installation on
a different partition on the same machine works fine. I suspect I have a
bad entry in the registry. 

I have tried repairing the system, but no improvement (the repair
registry must also be bad).

I have tried comparing text dumps of the registry from the two machines,
but can't see anything relevant. But the main installation has a lot of
apps, and utilities installed - so the registries are very different. 

I suspect its the parameters passed by explorer that are wrong, but have
no idea why they would be different in the case of a floppy than a hard
drive  - they work OK.

I get the same error [The parameter is incorrect] if id do a Dir in a
Dos prompt. Changing to drive A in a dos box gives [The system cannot
find the drive specified].

Before I scrub the system partition and spend the rest of Christmas
reinstalling and setting up applications - does anyone have any ideas!!
