Disk I/o Error On Boot
due to an io device error.When formatting a floppy disk, it takes more than 5 minutes to format one and it always ends in failure. The diskette sometimes becomes corrupt after that. I have tried with multiple diskettes and all of them gave me the same error. The drive can format a bit, then cannot read the entire disk, and then format a bit again. You will hear this rhythmic grinding and seeking noise instead of the smooth disk i/o error replace the disk and then press any key stepping noise when you format floppies.I have tried with a 5.25 floppy drive and a 3.5 floppy drive with the same issues appearing. I have also tried switching floppy cables and this does not work either. When I looked into the controller, pins 4 ,5 and 6 are gone, but the original image of the motherboard at msi does also show pin 4,5 and 6 are suppose to be missing.My bios setting was correct in diskette A as I set it to 1.2 or 1.44 reapectively. I have disabled hpet as well. My drives are connected to the end of the floppy cable. If anyone can help, I will be more than grateful. Thanks.

NTFS. I can boot to an A: prompt using a Windows 98 boot disk. If I try to use the setup disks (makeboot.exe) when I insert the first disk the floppy is accessed and disk i/o error then I get the following error: disk I/O error and it hangs at a flashing cursor and that is it. I have tried numerous floppies and cables with no fix. I have tried resetting the BIOS with no fix. I have tried these same and 2 other sets of floppy setup disks in other Win XP Home pc's and they work fine. I am down to the floppy controller on the mobo possibly but then why would the pc boot from a Windows 98 boot disk? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
