Enter the BIOS

And reset the Boot items to Optical Drive then HDD 0.

While you are in there also disable Stop On All Errors. Then save and exit that should cure your problem.

bios setup

by Kiltie In reply to floppy drive failure

When you say "but i am not getting into it"

Do you mean that you can't enter BIOS?

The <del> key works on many computers, or F2, F10.

When the computer starts there is usually a message telling you how to enter BIOS (it may be called SETUP)

Otherwise we need the name of your motherboard and/or your computer make/model to help further.

I think Col is right here, your BIOS is trying to access a floppy drive as a first boot device, you have to change the boot order in BIOS.

or....... maybe you can simply ignore the error message?

If it will let you ;-)
