I got a 760ED and wish to update the bios files and install the modem and wave drivers. But it has no floppy ..just a cd rom drive. IBM loves to install drivers on floppy disks only. The installation software always says"insert Disk 1 into A drive. Any way to use the cd rom. I did write the drivers to a CD, then tried to change the path in DOS from drive A to drive d..no luck. Thanks for any help!
Regards,
Patrick Forster
