Joel;
have you reset your bios to make sure it isn't some
bios glitch not recognizing the proper drive type or something?
other than that, it must be a bad floppy controller on the mobo.
I assume the drive doesn't work in dos either?
My next step would be to strip back to basics: memory, video card, cpu
and see if the drive works.
