Symptom(s):
When adding a driver by pressing F6 and using a USB floppy drive, the device driver loads initially, but after the first reboot during the install the floppy drive is no longer recognized by the system and the driver fails to load.
Cause:
The initial DOS USB floppy driver used is not available after the first reboot. Configuring the USB floppy as a Mass Storage Device allows an available driver to be used.
Solution:
Have the USB floppy connected when the system is started.
In the system BIOS:
1. Advanced
a. Floppy Configuration
i. Floppy A: set to Disabled
ii. Onboard Floppy Controller: set to Disabled
b. USB Configuration
i. USB Mass Storage Device Configuration (this option is not present unless a USB floppy is connected)
ii. Set Emulation type to Floppy
Press F10 to Save settings
Reboot
