No, you won't have a Macquarium. You probably have a dirty floppy drive. Try re-inserting the disk a little forcefully, then help it seat all the way down with a letter opener or butter knife. Reinserting a disk will help the drive read it better, unless the drive or the disk are damaged. Jeff G -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
