Check for the cable's twisted part & Pin no 1 to the floppy drive and the straight one to the board.

Assuming you are using a standard tower, the floppy connectors appear to be Upside Down compared to the Hard Drive and CDROM/DVD connectors. Its an easy mistake to assume everything should look the same, at least it's an easy fix:) cocker92 Oct 24, 2003, 02:11 PM CHEERS, ALL SORTED NOW MasterMind Oct 24, 2003, 02:12 PM NP :) (Turn OFF your Caps Lock plz) ;) |
