started today: Calibre accessing FLOPPY drive

rheostaticsfan · 07-04-2011, 01:46 PM

It's like calibre is looking for a disc in my ancient floppy drive (3.5"). I don't know why, and I can't get it to stop. I'm pretty sure it didn't do this last week...and upgrading versions didn't fix it.

Can anyone help me find out what's going on? The program works fine, but the drive noise is making me nuts.
