I worked on a system this week that the owner could not install an OS. The
boot drive was a 30gb running Ez-Bios. If you put a floppy in and boot
directly
from the floppy before the Ez-Bios loads the the boot floppy would not see
the
C: drive. Start the system and Ez-Bios asks if you want to boot from floppy
then the floppy will recognize the C: drive. Don't know if this is your
problem
and if it is I hope it helps.
