SYMPTOMS
The following floppy disk problems may occur when you are running
Windows 95:
- You cannot access your floppy disk drive.
- When you choose a floppy disk drive, it attempts to read the wrong
drive.
- Your floppy disk drive does not appear or appears incorrectly.
CAUSE
If the CMOS settings of your computer do not indicate that a floppy disk
drive is installed, Windows 95 may not be able to display your floppy disk
information correctly. MS-DOS, or the real-mode portion of Windows 95, may
allow you to access the floppy disk drive.
RESOLUTION
Refer to your computer documentation, or consult with your hardware vendor
regarding how to access and update your CMOS settings.
