Why does my computer do this every few days?
drmlvr:
Got XP and every 7-10 days it kicks me out and says:
Boot disk error- insert floppy
Don't have a boot disk. Any help or tips would help. THANKS
Mike

That is too hilarious....
Anyway, maybe you are booting your computer with a floppy in it? Back when I was a computer noob, I left a floppy in, and remember getting an error. I think the BIOS is set to booting from a floppy, and then it realizes that the floppy is not bootable, and shows that error.
When does this error show up? At boot or during your use of XP?
But judging by Chad's response, it would seem that he's had much experience with it, so perhaps you should take his advice. ;D

When did this start? Could it be the hard drive in its death throes?
