When turning on the computer, an error appeared: Floppy disk(s) Fail (40). This error occurs due to incorrect operation of the Floppy disk (drive), or from settings in the BIOS.
Many do not even know what a floppy disk is. Because this "mammoth" is already a thing of the past. It was replaced by flash drives. To give you an idea of what we are talking about here, see the image below.
Picture 1. Floppy 3.5
If you still have system block the device shown in Figure 2 is installed, pay attention to its indicator. If it is constantly glowing, then try flipping the cable to the other side.
Figure 2. Drive.
Well, if you do not have Floppy, then when you reboot, we go into the BIOS by pressing the key [del] or [ DELETE ](this key is designated differently on keyboards), we find the entry: Floppy Drive A, it contains the value "3'5" 1.44Mb. This value should be changed to None. Then we look for the item advanced bios features and in it under paragraph Check Floppy Drive on Boot change the value to Disable.
That's it, now press the F10 key on the keyboard, a window will appear in which we press the key [Y] and click [ENTER].
This error occurs, as a rule, on old computers on which a floppy drive was once used and still installed. For those who are not aware, a floppy drive is the device where magnetic floppy disks are inserted.
What does floppy disk fail 40 mean?
If, when you turn on the computer during the step BIOS boot This error is displayed, which means that there are problems with the floppy drive. This may be a broken power cable or interface cable, a problem with the drive itself, or incorrect BIOS settings.
How to remove floppy disk fail 40?
In order to get rid of this error, you need to perform several steps. But keep in mind that after that your floppy drive will no longer be detected by the system and you will not be able to use floppy disks. (I don't know if there are people who still use them)
- The first thing to do is disconnect the cable from the floppy drive. This applies to both the power cable and the interface cable. This must be done to eliminate the possibility of short circuiting possibly damaged loops. Do this only when the computer is turned off;
- Next you need (one of the keys F2, F12, Delete);
- Find there a line similar to Drive A, Floppy A. Usually located on the initial BIOS screen or in the “Standart Cmos Features” section
- Change the value of this parameter to "None" or "Disabled"
