I have installed an additional floppy drive, and a new cable for both floppy drives since dell was kind enough to include a defective cable (only supporting one drive). I even had to aquire an extra power-plug (connector) to power the drive since there was no extra such plug included inside the computer.

Does anyone know how to upchuck the bios of a dell dimension 8200 , 2002 model, so that it will support drive b:\, because it will not appear in any windows versions, and it will not light up a second during booting, like the other one (a:\) does.

I'm getting real tired of all the things the dell motherboard and bios does not seem to support, but this... THIS.. takes the cake...

The thing is; when the bios does not support more than one floppy drive, b:\ that is normally assigned to this "secondary" floppy drive, will not work in any windows/dos/whatever.  Maby BSD systems may go around the bios, but I would like my second floppy drive to work with windows.
