234481 2004-05-05 04:27:00 Hi there, some how I have stopped booting up via my A:\ making my recover disks useless. I am using Win98SE and in ‘Advanced BIOS Features’ it reads, ‘First Boot Device - Floppy’. Where do I kick my computer?
Incidentally I was not impressed with MS’s security giveaway.

234484 2004-05-06 05:50:00 The connections seem firm??? Johnzz (5257)
234485 2004-05-06 05:54:00 Îf the drive works, but you can't boot with it, I'd suspect your recovery floppy. ;-) Try making a new one. Graham L (2)
234486 2004-05-06 21:19:00 Thanks Graham L but I put a floppy in and it just bypasses it
