  1. Well it my depend on what this new drive is, SATA or IDE. You won't install Windows from a floppy drive as such.

     

    My laptop has a SATA drive with Vista on it. I decided to install WinXP but when the CD runs it says it can't find the drive. I have a SATA drive on my desktop and WinXP goes on there without any problem.

     

    I believe there are floppy drivers made by the manuafcturer. When you install WinXP it says press either F2 or F6 to install thrid party drivers but I searched for them and never found any.

     

    I'm presuming your Win7 is on a CD? What happens when you try to install?

    Hi, Thanks for your reply,the new Drive is a Sata, I dont want to install with the Floppy, when i installed XP I had a floppy with the Sata drivers on, F6 ,Floppy in, all installed Ok. Win 7 is on a disk, I have`nt

     

    tried to install yet.

     

    the motherboard on my desktop has 4 Sata ports, I recently updated the BIOS ,& the Nvidia chipset, & the Nvidia Sata Drivers, the reason for my enquiry was that 2 or 3 people said I would need a Floppy

     

    with Sata Controllers drivers on it. I have been the the Nvida site, they now scan your computer which will give you a list of drivers that you require, which i have installed.

     

    I can`t get a definite YES or NO answer from forum sites & other media sites, as to whether i do need a Floppy Disk. Regards.

  2. I THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING THAT GAVE YOU MORE SPACE BUT INSTEAD IT TOOK ALL MY SPACE I NEED HELP IMMEDIATELY
