Question Weird Hard Drive Error

I am currently using Windows 2000. Upon sign in, I get this error:

"Tsc.exe
There is no disk in the drive. please insert a disk into drive\Device\Harddisk1\DR1."

Then it gives me the options of Cancel, Try Again, or Continue.

I click continue then go on.


But what does this mean? Should I be concerned? I've had this IBM Deskstar 40 gig HD for about three and a half months and it's about a quarter full.

If you need more info, just let me know! Thanks.

Do you have a Zip Disk as I have found several entries on google that refer to this error when a zip disk is present but no disk is in it.

Update

Thanks for the tips guys. It turns out that even if I have a disk in my zip drive, I get that error. And the "workaround", is to just hit continue until it goes away and I move on.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Pretyblkgrl,

I know a lot of people "love" their Zip drives, but have concidered using just a CD-RW??
