   I have a Tandy 1000EX that's been in storage for over 5 years. I bought some   
   Tandy MS-DOS 5.25" floppy disks from a seller on eBay. When I insert his newly   
   made boot disk in the internal 5.25" drive and turn on the computer, instead   
   of booting up it    
   displays the message "Boot Failure". The disk drive light turns on and it   
   sounds like it's operating correctly. Do I need to clean the disk drive? Do I   
   need a different boot disk? If I add an external floppy drive can I boot from   
   that? Is my internal    
   floppy drive defective?    
   Have any of you had success with the internal IDE cards that go to 640K and   
   have a flash card drive to boot from?
