Diskette Drive Seek Check

The computer checks its diskette drives by searching the read/write heads

for any malfunction. If any seek errors are found, you see one of these

messages:

If this error occurs, confirm that the system diskette is inserted into drive A.

If the message still appears after you insert the diskette, you may then

persists, consult your dealer about having the drive repaired.
