>After doing some work inside of my pc my floppy drive >is no longer working. The power light will not go off The red or blue colored pin stripe on your data ribbon cable should probably be next to the power cable at the back of the floppy drive. That color indicates pin number 1 and it should match up with pin 1 on the gold pins of the floppy drive. I have seen a very few floppy drives that have pin number 1 on the other side away from the power cable connector, but more frequently it's next to the power connector (called a Berg connector).
