Have floppy drivers been removed from Windows 10? the drive worked in 8 and 8.1 out of the box, using SFLOPPY.SYS Hi, I have a USB floppy drive, lets call it generic, no names are printed on the label, and I have tossed the box it came in. (pretty much all use generic MS drivers anyways) I took a screenshot of my device manager, with all USB related devices expanded, at least all the USB devices that are connected all the time.īluetooth is expanded, as I have a Bluetooth USB dongle, audio is expanded for my LifeChat USB headset. The drive still works, I plugged it into my older computer running Windows 7, and it installed without issue.

Now a driver for the floppy is listed in the USB controller section, however the driver for the drive itself has an yellow exclamation mark on it, and Drive A: is not being listed in "This PC" Port USB hub (connected to a USB 2 Port) and still have the same problem. I've tried connecting to every USB port on my computer, USB 2 ports and USB 3 ports, as well as an external powered 7 My motherboard is an Asus P8Z77-V LK, which has 2 sets of USB controllers onboard, Intel Z77 Express USB 3.0/2.0 and ASMedia USB 3.0 controller. This is on a custom/home built desktop, not any brand name desktop.

This may allow the floppy drive to function.Thank you for your interest in updating to Windows 10 Technical Preview. Under the USB Mass Storage Device Configuration menu, the floppy settings selection can be changed from Auto to Floppy. The USB device settings are listed under the Advanced BIOS settings, USB configuration. To get the BIOS to recognize the USB Floppy Drive, enter BIOS settings screen and make sure that the CMOS settings are correct for the USB device. This floppy drive will not require a driver to function with XP. If you do not have access to a different USB floppy drive, another alternative is to get one of the VMIVME-7452 products and use the standard floppy drive on it. If you run into this problem then you will need to use a USB floppy drive that does not require a driver. The reason for this lock-up condition is that certain USB floppy drives also need a driver loaded to work with Windows XP. If you are trying to load XP to such a device and to load the driver from a USB floppy drive this can cause a lock-up condition. Some storage devices require a driver be loaded during the installation for them to work with Window XP, such as the PMC-243 hard drive unit. SBC locks up when loading Windows XP onto a PMC Hard Drive and while using a USB Floppy to load the device driver.
