Hi, Can anyone help me. I put in a floppy in the A drive and when I ejected it the plastic thing at the top stayed in the drive.

Take all the cables, i.e,, Power, monitor and all else, out of the PC remember
where they came from, and gently hol the base unit up side down until you
see the plastic bit drop out, DO NOT vigorously shake the PC go careful.0 -

Try tweasers (Spelling?!?) should be able to get it out easy enough.
Will have to squeeze the plastic together0 -
I did the same thing and got it out with tweezers. Just make sure that you turn the power off at the mains first.
