I am trying to fix an odd problem.  I have a system that I could not read from the floppy drive after the system boots, but will boot from a floppy and successfully operate.  In separate steps, I swapped the ribbon cable, the floppy drive and then disabled the onboard floppy controller and installed an old controller in an expansion slot (all parts are known to work).  The problem still persists after all of this.  Any helpful suggestions?

The system is a generic build with:  Intel AN430TX MB, Intel P5-166 Classic, 32 Mb SDRAM, Quantum 3 Gb HD, Toshiba CD-ROM, Cirrus Logic video, etc.

TIA,
Ron
