Post by: Hiatus on October 29, 2004, 22:18

I don't know if this is hardware or software related, but...


1. Is it posiible to have a virtual floppy drive compatible with Windows ME?


2. Can you boot up from a virtual floppy drive?

I have had virtual CD and DVD drives created on my pc (XP OS) created by variuos programs but I have never seen a virtual floppy.
If you did have a virtual floppy then I doubt it would be bootable as it wouldnt be there until the OS and probably the program that created it had been fully loaded when windows started  :(
