Could anyone please help on what is the most efficient way
of disabling all our adrives (floppy drive) off our users
( we may need to access it from time to time) and also
the modem connection to the internet.

Please help .

hey, the best way to do this is go into bios and turn off floppy. you can also turn off the comm ports that connect to the modem. the modem is usually on comm 2. turn off both comm ports. then you can password protect the bios screen. this works really good. you enable whenever you need to use it!!
