Solve : Bios shows floppy drive A & B but PC only sees A?

Answer»

I have a dual floppy drive in PC with an AOpen AX4SPE-UN MB,in a PC running Win98SE, it's the only PC I have that still has a 5.25 FD and I want to transfer the FLOPPIES to DVD, the Bios ALLOWS choosing A and B, but when I reboot after saving the Bios I only see the "A" drive in "My Computer", the drive is working OK, and both drives WORK, I can fool "B" to work by changing jumpers on the Teac 505 floppy drive but then I lose "A".

Thanks

BrandyIt probably sees only the "A" drive because of the twist in the cable. That twist helps the BIOS see the "A" and the "B" individually.

Alan <>< Whether you put the drive before or after the twist, it will always only see one drive. I don't know of any other way to "see" both drives in Windows unless they are separate drives, one before and one after the twist.
