[EvilCoconut]

i can't boot off a floppy on this mobo? its a norton ghost boot floppy and it works fine on my other computers.. is there some bios setting i neeD?

 

[Trashman]

yes, in BIOS, you might have to dig around a bit, look for BOOT Options or look in under advanced features...and make floppy boot ahead of your hard drive....for example...1st boot device floppy....2nd cd-rom....3rd...hard drive.

loll... i kno i did that. i mean is there any advanced things i need to look for

 

[Trashman]

there are no advanced settings.....does the floppy drive work?

 

[EvilCoconut]

well i copied the files onto a cd and it wouldn't boot either..

 

[Trashman]

well...if your boot options are set like above....during boot-up can you see if the floppy or cd-rom is being acessed? or does it by-pass both and boot directly off of hard drive.
