Also I had major problems getting the floppy to work. The secret was to
install win95 or 98 or me then install the floppy driver BEFORE plugging the
floppy drive in !!

Get l70utils.exe - within it is hidden the floppy driver tsbfdc.inf. (Or
if you have l50utils.exe, try that). Run this, unzipping to a temporary
directory, then plug in the floppy drive. The "new hardward" wizard
should appear - indicate that you "have disk", and enter the name of the
temporary directory. (If the wizard does not appear, what "beeps" do you
hear?)
