Floppy Disk Error on POST

[dongie]

---

When I first turn on the computer in the morning (cold boot), I get Floppy Disk Error (error 80) during post and the computer will ask to either enter bios setup or press F1 to continue. Have checked BIOS setting and floppy drive is set as "A" and is the correct floppy drive specs. The error just turned up suddenly two days ago. When I enter windows and try to use the floppy drive, mubasa man. If I reboot later, wala na ang error but the next day naa na pud. Any suggestions please?

maybe bios prob., ruelnov can help. or try this 1st. replace the cmos battery.

you might have a lose cable on the floppy drive
or your floppy drive is defective..

The next day mubalik ang problema?

Have you tried turning the off the computer pati ang AVR, para sure ibot jud ang plug? kung mubalik gani ang problema, adto sa BIOS den check ang internal clock.. If ni reset sad. Wala nay power ang battery sa mother board..

defective floppy drive... or a faulty ide cable... or a bad floppy controller on board.
