    Did you set it up in BIOS? Just a guess.

      Yup....this system always had a floppy, it always worked until this OS. I have a S2K12 system that does this too....I never found the cure.

        I still haven't figured out this floppy quirk yet...but this system as of New Year's Eve has been officially recommissioned after several years in mothball.

        If you also notice, the desk has different surroundings....



        Yea, I'm up to no good!



        ...but as for this system, its alive & well....and functioning stellar!

          I installed my Server 2016 machine in 2018-05-27 and I still have 104 days to go on my last rearm
          I did this for the first time on an experimental that had expired......worked like a charm!
