Dan, I wasn't sure it would work, so didn't suggest that, anyway…no floppy at all kind of makes it useless. On our PC's at work, we set the switches to show 2 floppies, attach the B: connector to the A: drive and have no A: drive on the system. It boots off the hard drive via a password scheme. The drive cable swap makes it so you can't stick a system disk in the floppy and boot off the system disk and bypass the password. Then the autoexec.bat does an ASSIGN a=b and everybody's happy. The PC now thinks it has an A: drive by reading the disk in the b: drive. It's a screwy setup, but it works. Since there are no switches on the bridge to tell it how many floppies are attached…I figured it wouldn't work with the bridge. Your saying that with no floppy at all, after booting off the HD it won't recognize even the B: drive confirms that. Don
