I'm taking the "no show in dos" to mean while reboot and floppy in drive A and seek floppy enabled in the bios, the puter did NOT hang? This is not DOS but a POST from bios really. Can you hear the post SEEK the drive? And the green lite on drive A comes on briefly or continusly?
Lets jump ahead here for a minute. within devicemanager select floppy disk drives & click the plus to open. now rite click the drive itself & click remove answer yes & reboot. Windows software will refind & install what's needed to work the A drive.
