I can't use my floppy disk drive. I'm sure it's all set-up correctly but it won't read disks at all. It says in set-up that it is installed but apart from that, it's like it doesn't exist. Any ideas?

Firstly can you tell us what operating system are you using ? What version of windows ?

Under My Computer is their a 3 1/2 floppy / A drive listed ?

I'm using Windows Xp - Home Edition. It's not listed under my computer, the local C drive and the CDRW are but the floppy isn't.

Install Tweak UI (free from Microsoft) and look under My Computer tab of Tweak UI; see if "A" is 'checked'.

How do I install that? I havn't got the internet on the computer in question. Is it possible to save it to CD?

TweakUI is only 147kB.
