Am working on a friends laptop (don't most problems start this way?) and
after formatting his hard drive I realized that I cannot have the CD and the
Floppy drive actually in the laptop at the same time. OK, so I didn't look
far enough ahead. I use a floppy to install the CD drivers in a virtual drive
and NEVER had this problem with a desktop because, well, you get the picture.
The boot order doesn't give an option for anything except floppy or hard
drive. There is no USB for an external floppy drive. Can I use COPY command
in DOS to copy drivers from floppy to hard drive?
