| subject: | Re: Supported USB floppy for F6 XP storage driver install? |
From: "Gary Britt"
Only in the Premium version. Other versions have no F6 key at all
The ability to load a driver from a floppy versus not being able
to load one at all is one of the principal reasons to go for Vista Premium.
