AST RESEARCH, INC. INFORMATIONAL BULLETIN # 0011 09/10/96
TITLE: Win95 and WinNT v4.0 Floppy Refresh
SUMMARY
Windows 95 and Windows NT v4.0 do not update the floppy drive
window on rescan.
This issue affects all systems.
NOTES
When the user brings up a floppy window by clicking on My
Computer, the 3 1/2 floppy drive A: window content will not
refresh when a new floppy is inserted in the drive and the user
clicks on the 3 1/2 floppy drive A: again.
The content of the old disk remains in the window even though the
floppy drive spins up and scans the new disk.
To resolve the problem, after changing floppy disks, use the
key or click View, Refresh to refresh the drive window.
This problem is inherent in both Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0
operating systems. It does not indicate a failure or problem with
the floppy drive.
