Had a problem where when I went to format a floppy disk in my floppy drive and error message popped up and said no disk in drive. So i FIGURED either my drive is bad or my floppy disk....i replaced both and still have the same problem. I have checked all my connections/wires and everything is in snug. I am trying to flash my bios so my board will accept a faster athlon xp CHIP. I have windows xp pro with SP2.....any ideas on what could be wrong?

Mason_Dixon.....Have you installed a new PROCESSOR?
Do you regularly use your A drive.....when did it stop working ? Do you see it in my computer ? Will it read a disk with data on it ?

let us know

dl65  I don't regularly use my A drive, however I bought a new one last year so now I have 2 new floppy drives.

I can't remember the last time i used it so i don't know if it was working before i tried to put a new processor.

I do see the drive in my computer and the bios.

It won't read a disk with data on it, when i stick a disk in and select format, it says "please insert a disk"boot to safe mode f8 key...go in the add/remove and uninstall sp2...it should cure it...and ASK m$oft for sp2 disk....as downloading updates can go wrong?
