DFI Lan Party UT NF3 question

[whattaguy]

This bios is unfamiliar to me, since I've been working with Pentium exclusively for the last few years. It has some floppy features in the bios, but I don't understand them. Can anybody explain this to me?
Thanks.

in bios there should be a section just on boot order. where you can specify floppy, ide0, ide1, ide2, usb, etc, etc and specify which is 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc

It has external device, hard drive, cdrom, but no floppy in the "boot order" section.

if the floppy isnt an option then its probably not being seen by the system

double check that the floppy is connected correctly (ie, make sure the cable isnt backward, etc)

is the system even recognizing the floppy? also make sure in the first page of the bios has the floppy controller turned on and that its set to be A: drive
