has 1800ed said you could get a usb floppy or cdrom drive if you have usb or even a usb memory stick, u could always get a cdrom and fit it somewhere else all you could need is some sort of extention for ide cable and power cable, if it shows up in my computer chances are board supports a floppy drive so just needs one fittin.
