Topic: Lost Floppy

[TR]

Lost me floppy (A)drive..I'm sure it was there last week  

looked in Bios its enabled, looked in Device manager it sees a legacy floppy controller, looked in Everest  doesnt see it anywhere....weird goins on huh.

Any advice would be appreciated, although its brand new do you think I should get another just in case

Does it make the usual noise and flash its light when you boot up Hookie

Nothing Sandra..I reckon its a duff one & for the sake of a fiver might just buy a new one

I assume that you have checked the cables are connected the right way round, although usually with floppy drives if the ribbon cable is in wrong the light stays on continually

All sorted.

It was in the Bios, but not the normal setting of enable floppy?? it was enable "A" + "B" that was the problem  > WTF how did that happen   dont ask me I know nothing.
