Bummer, just installed my cool black floppy drive (Arrived this morning) in my new SV24, but it's giving me a floppy fail (40), I've connected it all up. Looks to me like it's DOA :( But I'm certainly not an expert, anybody got a really helpful suggestion? :)

firstly check the cables in the right way up at both ends. If it doesnt work, reverse one of the ends (take out and turn around). If it doesnt work, ensure the cables not faulty and it's enabled properly in the bios.

Ok, shoot me for clinical idiocy - Cable was upsidedown :o

Thanks for that pice of common sense.

while everybodys bowing and tipping and whatnot, im stealing everybodys wallets and/or valuables. oh, you might want to check where you left your cars.

(this is not an admission of guilt, i had nothing to do with anything that any of you has had stolen, or anything{just covering my back :)})
oh iwas in the shop for about 3 seconds today but i couldnt stop and i was ****ed off becuase i didnt have about 130 quid that i should of had so i had no time to stop and chat cos i needed tyo catch my dad before he left ayr to get a lift home(see aforementioned lack of money. crossref trainfare)
