Boot TS - Boot Sequence Is Floppy Disk First

Explanation: The system is being told to try to boot the floppy drive first.

Diagnosis: Assuming that there is a bootable floppy disk in the A: drive, the BIOS should attempt to boot it.

Recommendation: Look for signs that the drive is being booted. You should see the activity light on the disk drive come on, and you should hear the drive motor activate and the system try to read the floppy disk drive. Is any activity noticeable?
