It works, but I found a rather annoying problem. Windows 10 always tries to write "System Volume Information" to floppy disk and it takes large spaces (for a 1.44M floppy, anything is huge!). How can I stop the stupid Windows 10 from doing this?

AMD K6-2+ 500, FIC PA-2013 2.0 (1MB cache), 128MB SDRAM PC100, Voodoo3 3000 AGP, Labway Yamaha YMF719B-S with NEC XR385
AMD Athlon 64 3000+, ECS K8M800-M3, 512MB DDR 400, GeForce FX 5200, SoundBlaster Live! SB0060

I am not absolutely sure this works with floppies, but if the system considers them as removable media same as usb drives it might work.
