verify its picked up in the bios

by start bios test it (light at fdd and sound) and goes on, so at bios stage
everything seems to be good

 

[bigdawg]

but is it selected as a 5.25 1.22 mb and is it a 1.22 or a 2.44/720? did
you take if form a working system and is know good? I have a 5.25 working
in a XP Home system but can say I have never tried one on Win2k

You may have to change in the BIOS from 3 1/2 to 5 1/4

ok, everything working fine now, problem was at the jumper, he wasnt
"mounted" well enough, and there was no connection between pins

thanks for help
