I began my weekly scanning (Norton) of a 20 Gig Maxtor HD, partitioned C-G, when I received message roughly equivalent to above (unable to scan). I clicked on "Help" and the following was provided:
"If you are attempting to access a floppy disk drive and are denied access, there is no disk in the drive. If you are attempting to access a hard disk drive, you need to resolve the problem that is causing you to be denied access (for example, on a network you may not have access rights)."
I looked in Device Manager (Win98se) at my 7200 rpm UDMA drive, DMA enabled, "device working properly." Tried scan again, same message. Tried again, same message. Tried scan fourth time, boot records / files scanned as they were supposed to. Any ideas what triggered the original access problem?
Thx.

PS: I installed Naptser downloading software today before scan.
