Your FDD controller might be messed up. Uniflash might have a hard time verifying/comparing whatever it's having a hard time reading...

Some BIOSes don't like floppy access from flat real mode. This will be fixed in next UniFlash version.

Patched and tested BIOSes are at http://wims.rainbow-software.org
