Well I havn't had good luck at all. I recently got a laptop (very very good price) but it doesn't have a CD-ROM drive or a floppy drive. I have an external CD-ROM drive connected via the PCMCIA however I can't boot from it to install the operating system because it is unrecognized. I have the correct drivers to do so, but I don't have a floppy drive! Is there any way to load drivers directly from your hard drive or even better your flash drive, in DOS?

btw just to make clarify everything, yes I have changed the boot options / settings in BIOS
