IIRC ppl were telling u to set the boot priority with cd-rom as the first booting device so if u listened to them now u have to go back in the bios and revert to
1. Floppy
2. HDD
3. CD ROM (just make sure that the floppy has the 1. priority)
Next possible causes for your problem can be that the
- floppy cable is plugged in upside down (u can experiment on the fly,which means that u can unplug the cable when your pc is still turned on Winking )
- or u used a unformatted or a corrupt disquette
Btw if u have these options in BIOS like I do do the following:
"Floppy drive swap" - set to DISABLED
"Floppy drive seek" - set to ENABLED
