An easier way to solve this is through the Device Manager (devmgmt.msc). Just disable the 'Floppy disk drive' - at least that worked for me. Happy gaming :happy:


I must endorse this as well.  Simple as can be.  And for those that are uncertain how to open Device Manager do the following.

Control Panel\\System and Maintenance\\Device Manager
    Expand Floppy Disk Drives
         Right-Click Floppy Disk Drives
               Click Disable

Same problem here and the solution worked here as well. I also noticed the problem doesn't occur with the Directx 9 renderer.

The problem with that is, sometimes Windows tries to use "disabled" hardware anyway (I put that in quotes, because you're not truly disabling it.  You're just telling Windows "Pretend that isn't there."), or just re-enables it for no apparent reason.  This also isn't any simpler or easier.  It just takes less time, since you don't have to reboot, but the actual steps involved for either are few in number and straightforward.  The only other difference is that going into the BIOS means you tap some keys on the keyboard, whereas with Device Manager, you click the mouse.

No go for me. I don't have any floppy drives, nor do they appear in the device manager. When I start da2, I get around 5 no disk errors which I have to click away. After that, it runs though. Any advise?

Solved!
I have a built in card reader (SD, microSD, etc.). If I disable all of them, it works.
However, it is of course stupid you have to do such a thing and would call this a bug in da2. I hope this can be solved.

I had this problem because my BIOS was telling windows there was supposed to be a floppy drive, when actually I don't have one installed.

It's pretty easy to tell if this is the case for you by going to your Computer and checking the drives listed there - if there's an A: drive showing up, but your PC doesn't actually have a device to put floppies in anywhere, then the best thing to do is go into the BIOS and disable it (since you don't have it anyway, there's no reason to tell windows it's there :) ).

To do this just tap the DEL key (or other key as listed on your motherboard's startup screen) while the computer is booting up. In the blue BIOS screen, select advanced CMOS features, find the floppy drive entry and change it to "none". Now exit & save Y -> restart and voila, the floppy drive is gone and DA2 should stop complaining about it. :)

If you do actually physically have a floppy drive installed and it's giving this error it's best to disable it through device manager.

If you don't have a floppy drive showing and still get this error, check that you aren't running any virtual drive software like Daemon Tools, etc. If you are, then start the virtual drive manager and disable all virtual drives first, before shutting down the program.

Start > Control Panel > Hardware And Sound > Device Manager

It's under the Devices and Printers category.
