IIRC, if you're talking Windows XP or 2003, it's just a floppy or what the system sees as one. Vista and 2008 will look at any removable drive. From: David Lum [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, August 07, 2009 12:20 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Floppy to load SCSI drivers... I have an IBM x345 and I need to load SCSI drivers during a recovery boot to Windows CD. Anyone know offhand if you can use something other than a floppy to get the drivers from? I'm guessing it would be a BIOS setting to make a USB drive act like a floppy or something similar. The server has a floppy drive so this is more out of curiosity than anything...seems silly to rely on a floppy for anything these days.
