You shouldn't do that anyway. Save it locally and then go into Windows
Explorer and send it to the A drive.

Okay, this is weird one. Microsoft Word (Office 2000 on Windows 2000)
will
no longer allow me to "save as" to the 3.5 inch drive. The drive has been
checked by a tech. It does work. In fact, I made a shortcut on the
desktop
for the 3.5 inch drive. I'm able to drag word documents into the shortcut
and into the disc.

So, when I "save as" to the 3.5 inch drive the computer locks up and will
only restart with a hard reboot.

I reinstalled Office 2000 and still have the problem.

How do I fix this without reinstalling my operating system?

Can anyone help?
