Floppy Troubles
I having been having a problem with a floppy drive that is on a Compaq 5461
presario PC. It says that the drive is set to "real mode" and this may limit its function. The drive light comes on and initializes but will not read I guess do to the "real mode" issue. Any suggestions on solving the problem? Thanks Brian
