What is the POST error code series for the floppy drive system?
The error codes for floppy drives are 60x with 601 being the A: drive and 602 being the B: drive. Those errors most often come up when the data cable is disconnected or not fully seated to the back of the floppy drive. If the cable is installed upside down (which can happen), then the drive will spin and spin while the computer generates that 601 or 602 error code. Just disconnect the cable, turn it the other way, and the drive should then work normally.
