Hi, 

I am having some more problems with Windows/386. I have a 1.2 Meg drive and a
1.44 meg drive (A and B), and every time I click on the A or B icon in the 
MS-DOS Exec window, with the wrong kind of disk in the drive (ie, 360K in 1.2
and 720K in 1.44), windows gives me an error mbox (Retry or Cancel). After that,
I totally loose the floppy drives.

Only way is to quit out of windows to the dos prompt.

Has anyone else had the same problem? Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Milan.
