Default Re: Another 486 PC keyboard problem

I had similar problems with my 486. I had to change out the floppy disk drive. The replacement intermittently reported errors, but it cured itself with use.

I would also see "Non-system disk" and 2Disk I/O" error messages both of which were down to problems with the disk rather than the disk drive.

Are the disk drives configured in the BIOS and connected to the correct connector on the twisted ribon cable?
