When my system boots for some reason it displays a floppy drive error and I have to use F1 to continue the boot process. When looking in My Computer it shows that I have two Floppies A and B. The B floppy is the actual floppy that works. I have only one floppy installed on my system however it shows two. When I right click on either floppy I'm not givin the choice to delete the drive. Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks

Click to expand...

Try remapping that floppy as A: That should take care of it.

If you have only one floppy installed, the drive should be connected to the
end connection of the floppy drive cable and be identified as Drive A. From
your description, it is possible that you have your floppy drive connected
to the middle connector {Drive B}.

Your motherboard BIOS is incorectly set. Enter CMOS setup and enter correct
floppy drive info.
