    laptop [w/no floppy drive] op sys install

    does anyone know how to install op sys on a laptop that has no floppy drive?

    i have a floppy that will install generic drivers so that the rom drive will function, but, w/out the floppy drive, i can not install the drivers so i can not procede.

    is there another way to get the drivers in so that an install is possible, w/out needed any fancy tools?

    Hello, and Welcome to techhelpforum.

    If there is no floppy drive on the laptop, then odds are the bios has capabilities for booting from the CDROM.

    What O/S did you want to load on this laptop?

    Depending upon what you want to do, you could maybe slipsteam them in a CD drive. We would need more details about the drivers you are trying to load.
