When I change floppies on my system, I get a volume ID change yet
the directory contents remain unchanged. I can force a change by
hitting a Cntl-C. I have swapped both drives and controller cards as
well as verified the DC options are in place on both drives. The
system is configured as follows:

Acer 486dlc 33Mhz Motherboard with Math Coprocessor
8 Meg. Memory
200 Meg. Maxtor Hard Drive
3" TEAC Floppy Drive
5" TEAC Floppy Drive
Hitachi CDR-3600 CD Rom Reader
CMS 250 Tape Reader
Soundblaster board
Internal Modem
Mainlan Ethernet Card
Trident 8900C Video
MSDOS 5

I have run test without autoexec.bat and config.sys installed as
well as disabled shadow rom and caching to make sure there were no
unknown interdependencies. The system will reliably recognize the
changing of disk volumn, yet the directory contents will remain
unchanged. I have no idea of what to do next. Any help would be
appreciated.
