Put it in, alligned the ribbong cable from the mobo with the 1 pin, hook thed twisted ribbon part to the floppy, hooked the FDD cable, with the little battery on it? I put in a disk but it keeps saying no disc found. Any ideas?
 
"hooked the FDD cable, with the little battery on it?"

Battery?

Is the light alway on, on the floppy? If so the twisted cable is on backward. You do have the 4 pin power cable plugged in right?
 
Ohhh may have a problem then, The light is never on. I thought there was a little cable with 4 pin adaptor on it and it has a little battery on it. In my motherboard it says it came with 1 FDD cable which is what I thought this little battery thing was.
 
ok its not called a FDD cable. I'm not sure what it is. Its got a 4 pin femal part with 2 wires coming back to a + sign and its round so I assumed it was a battery for it.
