No.

If you were to give details as to what problems *you* are having, you might
get a useful response.

Many people using Vista OS are having problems with their floppy drive &
optical disc drives. Before my dvdrw disappeared suddenly, I was able to fix
the prob by deleting the upper & lower filters in the registry of the DVDRW
and reboot the computer.

Now, im surprised that floppy drive dispperead suddenly. Cannot be found in
the my computer area. Im using Vista Ultimate for almost 2 months now. I just
noticed 3 days ago that my floppy drive disppeared all of a sudden. FDD
controller still appears in the device manager and you can still boot up in
the FDD drive so that suggests that floppy drive is indeed ok / working
properly. The only problem is that you cant see it at all, as if it was
disconnected physically or being undetected in someway but its not. Ive been
looking so so so so so so so very very very hard for the solution for this
but I cant find any but more linkls to people having problems like mine... I
hope someone from the developers of Vista could provide solution to these.
Its a big disappointed to all users of Vista who bought original dics to
upgrade from their previous OS only to encounter silly problems like these
that affects their computing experience. Microsoft should tested the Vista OS
thoroughly before releasing it commercially.

No.

You could try this to see if it helps:

Locate the file INFCACHE.1 in C:\Windows\inf

Right click on the INFCACHE.1 file, select Properties >Security > Edit, and give
your account full control.

Delete INFCACHE.1, or rename it to INFCACHE.1.BAK or temporarily move to your
desktop.

REBOOT

Anyone having problems copying floppy discs ??- Itago ang tekstong may panipi -

-Ipakita ang tekstong may panipi-

I tried doing that step bro, "deleting infcache.1 file". Nothing
happened after rebooting. I still cant view / use my floppy drive...
whheew, tried to uninstall floppy drivers again in the device managers
and see if vista recognize it and reinstalls it, like I've said before
vista reinstalls the floppy drive drivers and everything but its like
a ghost floppy drive. Device Manager can detect the floppy drive with
no conflicts or whatsoever but still no icon in the my computer area..
PLEASE HELP!!!
