    I have a solution for this problem. Try to go through the following steps.
    • First you need to create Storage device driver disk.
    • Then try to open textsetup.oem on your system.
    • You need to add them to the section HardwareIds.scsi.(device name).
    • If you are not having this section then try to create it.

    Hope it will help to you.

    Try for the following steps.
    1. Go to the floppy drive driver's .inf file.
    2. Search for the hardware ID in the file.
    3. Then try to load the F6 drivers.
    4. Before doing that make sure, other floppy drives are disabled in the bios.

    I think after trying this you will be able to solve your problem.

    I think that, the same think can be done with the USB thumb drives and USB hard drives.
    -Go to the device manager.
    -Here you need to find the hardware ID of your device.
    -Go to the properties of the Universal Serial Bus controller
    -Then to the details tab and then to the hardware ids.
    -At the bottom it will have the id, which you are looking for.
    -You need to just add it to your txtsetup.oem file
    Try this out on your system for fixing your issue.
