Can't get board to recognize floppy?

[Grizzle]

Any ideas?

It's a MSI board.

Is the floppy drive light on all the time when the machine is on? If so, you have the cable on backwards - reverse one end of the cable.

do you have floppy disabled? sounds stupid but happened to me once

Most likely your cable is reversed.

Same thing happened to me lol. I didn't have a floppy for a while because I didn't want to try to figure it out. Simple fix.

As far as MSIs go 2 things you need to do in the BIOS enable FDC and set in main Menu Floppy to 1.44 after that its just a matter of checking if the cable is reversed!

Or your controller could be fucked.
