Sure sounds like a BIOS set to have drive B disabled or not installed. In
those cases, you can "disk A:" and "disk B:" which both share physical
drive A and you get asked to swap disks so that the one being accessed is
in the drive. Maybe the BIOS isn't handling the drive B setting correctly
(which I assume you have set to the correct drive type)?
