The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server 3.1
This article was previously published under Q104765 SYMPTOMS
You try to install a driver using Windows NT Setup and the following
error message appears:
Noncritical Error
An error has occurred.
Unable to open the file A:\xxxxx.xxx
CAUSE
The Floppy Device service has been stopped or disabled to increase
system performance. Since Windows NT cannot read from the floppy
drive, an error is generated.
RESOLUTION
Either restart the Floppy Device service or use an alternate path
which does not rely on a floppy drive, such as a CD-ROM drive. To
restart the Floppy Device services, use the Devices portion of Control
Panel.
