I got an old HP Vectra computer that didn't have a floppy drive in it. I put one in and started it up and it always goes through a hardware check before it starts. During this check it failed the floppy drive with a general error saying something is wrong. If I look in the bios I can change the setting to make sure it's 3.5 2.44mb but when I try to save and it asks me to continue the keyboard stops working. There is a blinking cursor so I don't think it's frozen. Anyways this doesn't help. I can have it continue anyways and it will boot to windows 98 because that's what's loaded on the hard drive, however it either doesn't see a floppy drive, or if it does, it won't read from it. Any help to try to get this working is appreciated. thanks.
