Hi ineedhelp!1!1!
Welcome to BleepingComputer. You can get a floppy disk drive cleaner at your local electronics store. They are fairly cheap. Apply the solution to the cleaning disk and insert it into your floppy. You can also get a floppy drive at a computer store. Replacement is fairly easy. Pay attention as to how you remove the old drive and replace the new drive in the reverse manner. Hope this helps, rigel -------------------- "In a world where you can be anything, be yourself." ~ unknown

If you are talking about cd-rom or DVD-rom you can do the same thing with a cleaning cd.
Hope this also help, Klink -------------------- "A kiss is just a kiss until you find the one you love. A hug is just a hug until you find the one your always thinking of. A dream is just a dream until it comes true. Love is just a word until its proven to you."
