Yesterday, I pieced together a new system for a buddy of mine. Got everything plugged in and started it up. Installed Windoze XP Pro w/SP2 and all was going well...

Now when I went to shutdown the machine, windows gets to the logging off screen and then this message comes up:

The drive is not ready for use; its door may be open. Please check drive A: and make sure that the disk is inserted and that the drive is closed.

The weird thing is that there is no A drive installed. I am clueless as to what could be causing this. It's not much of a problem since you can just click Cancel and it goes away, but it is quite annoying.

All other hardware in the machine is functioning correctly.

Machine Specs
Windoze XP Pro w/SP2
Athlon64 3500+
GigabyteGA-K8NSNXP-939
Geil 1GB Value Series PC3200
2x Western Digital Raptor 74GB 10,000RPM SATA
2x Lite-On 16X DVD Dual Drive
EVGA nVIDIA GeForce 6800 GT

Anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this?
