I Have a PII system ...recently i bought a new 40GB seaget drive..and upgraded my system..adding 128 Mb RAM to it.On installing the 40Gb drive,i found that my compu. wont accept it...on few further inquiries i came to the conclusion that my motherboard or the BIOS (AWARD)do not have the capability to accept a 40Gb hdd..For few hours i was stuck with my non-refundable Hdd....but later i found that my hdd's storage capacity could be reduced by few jumper settings to 32Gb..i did that and Whew...it worked..so far so fine now the problem started....

I installed win ME on my new hdd and removed my old hdd completly...what happened after that was that my floppy drive stoped working..i.e at the bootup time i get a message saying floppy drive error pres F1 to continue...after that every thing goes smoothly.....WHy...and my fdd works fine if i replace my new hdd with the old one with 98 installed on it .(Since i get error at the boot sequence it seems that os has nothing to do with it.)

Could nay one shed some light on how can i get my floopy working.
