TITLE :Err Msg: Noncritical Error... Installing a Driver from Floppy
PRODUCT :Windows NT
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
----------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
