"Parameter is incorrect" error on floppy drive

[Christyt 0]

When accessing the floppy drive through My Computer, I am receiving a

"Parameter is Incorrect" error message. I am unable to open any floppies

nor write to them while in NT Server. Here are some other facts about the

system:

1. I am running an NT4/SBS4.5 server.

2. The floppy drive hardware is new and has been tested as being

functional.

3. I can boot the computer from a Win98 floppy.

4. I can copy files to the floppy while in DOS.

5. The BIOS has been looked at and the setting are correct and have been

reset and saved.

 

Any ideas what this message is and why I am getting it? It's making me

nuts.

I encountered the same issue and fixed it by installing the latest service pack. I can't find the link now but it's in the MS knowledge base as a known bug in NT Server.

 

Good luck
