Ok, well I know this sounds stupid but make sure the IDE cable (the big ribbon like cable) is connected to your floppy drive correctly. If that isn't the problem try right clicking on My Computer and going to Properties. From there select the Hardware tab and click Device Manager. In there go double click on the option in the Floppy disk controllers and see if it says the device is working properly. If so close out of that and double click your drive under Floppy disk drives and see if it is working properly. If it is you may need to uninstall your Floppy drive. Right click your drive under Floppy disk drives and click Uninstall. Then restart and see if that fixes it.

Windows XP will reinstall and get you the latest driver. If none of that works come back here and I'll try and figure it out.
