That's precisely the problem I had recently, which I never resolved.
So how do you get around that particular can of worms where there is no
floppy? I tried to force the bios to load sata drivers from a CD which I
inserted during the XP installation process instead of the non-existent
floppy, but that wouldn't work.
I tried hooking up a temporary floppy, but the computer didn't want to
recognise it.
I gave up in the end, as I had a sneaking suspicion that the mobo was
faulty anyway.
