| Newbie Rep Power: 10  |  x64 drivers for external floppy Got a new laptop to take the CA bar exam on, and I need a floppy drive apparently. Unfortunately, laptops no longer have such archaic devices, nor can I find a single mfr who makes a Vista 64 bit compatible external floppy. Anybody know of ANY driver solution for ANY usb / firewire / expresscard floppy drive for Vista 64? TIA! Noah  |

| Newbie Rep Power: 10 | Re: x64 drivers for external floppy running vista x86 enterprise. I had the same issue with my dell d620 laptop not installing driver for usb floppy drive. The default "vista will try windows update" always failed. I simply changed the manual browse location from what ever it was to c:\windows\systems32. vista searched and found drivers and installed ok. I had to do this for each USB port. unplug and re-plug in floppy drive. I still have a usb port on the docking station where it just wont find the a:\ - but at least its working now. |
