| | Floppy (A) Drive I have a floppy drive in my PC. In Windows Explorer it clearly shows as a valid drive. But when I put a disc in, a message comes up to the effect "Please insert a disc in Drive A and try again". Thoughts? Under XP in the same box (upgraded from XP PRO SP2 to Vista Home Premium ... no probs) it showed AND was usable. Rgds Rod |

| | Re: Floppy (A) Drive I had a similar problem, I check and the floppy power wire to the floppy was not connected. I connected the power wire and the problem was gone.
