Can't read from Floppy & CD

Hi everybody,

After booted up the XPE, both floopy and cd drive were
shown on My Computer. When I put in a formated floppy, it
reported "The disk in drive A is not formatted". When I
put in a CDROM, it reported "Windows cannot read from the
disk. The disk may be corrupted, or it could not be using
a format that is not compatible with Windows".

Is there any thing that I overlooked? Any suggestion is
welcome.

Thanks
Henry

To read Floppies you need the FAT component. To read CD-ROMs you need the
CDFS component. To read DVDs you need the UDFS component.

It is a good fix Andy. After I added the FAT and CDFS, I
could read from the floppy and CD.

Thanks
