-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The really odd is that I never took the floppy out during the install. I _DID_, however remove my TV tuner card, so I could identify the correct model for driver updates. I have no idea why the floppy quit working correctly.
Ehat IRQ is the floppy controller normally on - is that 6 or 13? Maybe I'm having some sort of interrupt collision, since windows shares interrupts. - -----Original Message----- From: Mike Wafkowski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 17, 2003 12:39 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: WOT - Floppy problems That's too odd. Did you check the pins on the motherboard side to make sure one isn't bent/broken. It's usually hard to see unless you really look. Of course the cable is always suspect.
