Some symptoms of incorrectly installed floppies are:
•
Floppy drives are not detected: usually caused by faulty cables,
backward cables, or a bad floppy or motherboard. Try another single
floppy drive to verify the problem or try another cable. Also, check to
see if the onboard floppy is enabled in the BIOS.
•
Floppy Drive Fail message at bootup: the cable, floppy, or
motherboard may be faulty. Try another cable or floppy drive to
verify.
•
Light on the floppy is on constantly: a dead giveaway that the cable
is on backwards. Reverse the cable at the motherboard end and try
again.
