I'm have a computer and can't get the floppy drive to work.
It's a home brew running xp. AMD 750 MHz, 192 Ram,
10 Gig Hard drive, 24X CD Rom, Nic card, on board audio,
AGP video card. Everything's fine except for the 3.5" drive.
The bios sees the drive, and windows sees the drive, but
a disk in the drive can't be accessed by windows. It tells me
the disk isn't formatted so I tell it to format it and after some
spinning and wizzing it tells me the disk can't be formatted.
The disk isn't the problem because it can be read on my
computer. (Same with 3 different working disks)
I swapped out the cable with a new one so I know it's
not the cable.
I tired 3 other floppy drives in it, but the same thing happens.
So, I'm scratching my head here wondering what I'm missing.
Any help much appreciated.
