It seems his problem is that he can't boot either of his hard drives anymore. I don't see how disabling or enabling floppy boot would effect this. I'm wondering if he's checked to see if the system can boot from a bootable floppy disk. I'm not familiar with the F12 > Low density floppy disk thing. As I wrote previously, I wonder if the BIOS on the 50 could just be upgraded with the file available on the Toshiba support site to fix the problem.
