Floppy not shown

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

What type of floppy drive is it? USB? Try visiting the manufacturer for
updated drivers. Have you try a different USB device to confirm that your
USB port is good?

Hi Chris,

Remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters values completely from the
following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\
{4D36E980-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

Programs/Administrative Tools/Services/In the right pane set"Shell Hardware
Detection" service to manual startup. Set it to automatic.

Or ....

Go to Start/Run/services.msc

Start/Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Services. In the right pane find
Shell Hardware Detection and set it to Automatic.

Code 39
Hi this is what it means
The driver is missing or corrupted, or is in conflict with another
driver. Look for an updated driver ot reinstall the current driver. If
the driver worked previously, use System Restore to roll back to a
working configuration.

Also check ribbon is firmly pushed into the back of the Adrive.
