Floppy Disk Drive Does Not Appear in the My Computer Folder

14
Hi,

Floppy Disk Drive Does Not Appear in the My Computer Folder?

Under the device manager, the resources tab shows that no resources allocated cos it has a problem. This device cannot start. (Code 10) under the general tab.

i've tried to uninstall and reinstall the driver but to no help at all.

Anyone pls help me to resolve this issue? Is my floppy disk drive really spoilt or just some files is missing?

thanks

i no this might sound like a dumb question, but is it plugged in and plugged in correctly? if it is, then i would think the drive is bad

Just a thought, is the floppy drive activated in the BIOS? Did it use to work and then stopped or did you reinstall the Windows?

Greetings,
