My laptop tries to boot with the floppy drive
Something has changed with my laptop. When I reboot after it has been off
for awhile, like overnight, it tries to boot from the floppy drive and I get "operating system not found". Changing the boot option to the hard drive does no good. If I install the System Disk 1, change the boot option to the CD ROM drive, and run through most of the diagnostics, it will eventually boot on C: but very slowly. The more times I attempt a reboot, the faster it gets. Once it is booted, I can restart the laptop and everything boots normally (but it runs slower than normal). However, when I leave it off overnight, it tries to boot from the floppy again and I get "operating system not found". Norton Utilities Virus Scan and Lavasoft Ad-Aware have been ineffective. |
