SUMMARY

The Hewlett-Packard (HP) Vectra CS/20 portable requires a 1.44 MB floppy disk to be in drive A at startup time for the MS-DOS FORMAT, DISKCOPY, and DISKCOMP commands to recognize the drive as a 1.44 MB floppy drive. If you do not place a 1.44 MB floppy disk in drive A, the FORMAT, DISKCOPY, and DISKCOMP commands treat drive A as a 720K floppy drive. HP's version of MS-DOS version 5.0 corrects this problem.

The product included here, the HP Vectra CS/20, is manufactured by vendors independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
