hello all, this may sound oldish, but i need two floppy drives installed on my cpu. sadly to say, ASUS P4P800-X supports only 1 floppy drive in the bios. is there a workaround on this one? can someone help me edit the bios? please help. hoping for your favorable response. thanks again.

What happens if you just connect a second floppy drive to the FDD cable?
If this doesn't work, would a USB floppy drive be acceptable?
Thanks.
