Occasionally whenever I access my floppy drive through Windows Explorer, the machine will reboot. I believe the drive is faulty but could be wrong. Any suggestions?

try accessing the floppy drive in pure MS-DOS mode. if that doesnt work, try a different floppy disk. If one of these things work, try scanning your hard drive for corrupted files and re-install your floppy drive drivers. If all else fails, replace your floppy.
