Solve : I can't boot my laptop with a usb floppy drive connected.?

Answer» <html><body><p>My computer is a compaq presario 2100. the operating system is Windows XP with SP2. Recently bought a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/hp-480511" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HP">HP</a> USB Floppy Drive and when I <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/connected-929389" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CONNECTED">CONNECTED</a> it I could not boot up. I disconnected it and it booted uo normal. I then connected the FD hot and everything seems normal. The computer recognizes the drive and requests that a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/disc-ko-432020" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about DISC">DISC</a> be inserted. allseems to work normal. if I shut down I cannot boot with he drive connected but if I disconnect it then I can boot up and reconnect it. Is there anything I can do so I can leave the drive connected all time and be able to boot up without disconnecting the drive? thank you for any info.First make sure there isn't a floppy in the drive when you are trying to boot.<br/>Second you may need to go into your BIOS before windows starts and change the boot <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/order-238912" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ORDER">ORDER</a> so that it doesn't try to boot from floppy.<br/>If that doesn't work try disabling Legacy USB Support in your BIOS.<br/>If you don't know your way around your BIOS please let us know and don't change anything else.I really don't know my way around my bios. I know what they are but have never attempted to change them or even look at them. I would need very detailed instruction to change them. perhaps i had better just leave things the way they are and continue to connect the drive hot when i need to use it. I thank everyone sincerely for their help . I must say that this is the best Website I have ever logged onto. Please Keep up the good work it is much appreciated.</p></body></html>
