Re: Installing third party driver without floppy drive

Think John has the correct answer. Believe you're referring to the F6
prompt at the initial part of the the XP installation. It will only get
driver from the A: drive. Some older machines could have had a zip or
ls120/240 drive for this purpose if setup hardware-wise correctly for the A:
drive letter designation. The ls120 could read/write regular floppies as
well as its own 120MB media.
