Floppy drive not shown
I am trying to add a 5.25 and 3.5 in-one drive. I was able
to setup the BIOS. And in DOS mode I can access both drives. But when in Windows 98 normal mode only the first drive shows up under MYCOMPUTER. If I go to windows 98 safe mode I find both drives under MYCOMPUTER and I am able to access data from both. So I do not know what is the problem. Has anyone seen this problem before? |

Floppy drive not shown
Hi Firas,
In Safe Mode - Device Manager, locate and delete floppy drives *and* the floppy disk controllers. Restart to see if Win98 re-detects properly. -- Regards, Bert Kinney [MS-MVP DTS] http://dts-l.org/ How to Configure Outlook Express for Internet News: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=171164 "Firas" wrote I am trying to add a 5.25 and 3.5 in-one drive.
