I have an ASPIRE Laptop, with Windows XP, the problem is that when i
insert a floppy disc into the drive and click start, run, "A:" it will
not open it although the light on the front flashes, But i can read it
if i open it through My Computer, or with Word.
Please can anyone help me in finding out how to open it through the
usual start menu
many thanks

a temporary network connection by typing the path to a
shared computer. You can also gain access to the Internet by
typing the address (URL) of the site you want to open.

This is the help text for RUN. You can browse or try dir A:
