A very long time ago, someone (I think from C-A) posted the system-supported
method of taking over the use of a floppy drive. The drive no longer 'clicks',
and the system won't (can't?) access the drive until you relinquish control
of it. Could someone please refresh my memory with how to do this, as now
is when I'd like to be able to. Thanks.
