    3.5" Floppy Drive anyone???

    My 3.5 Floppy, that worked on a couple of Linux versions and on Windows XP, will not work in Windows 7. Windows Explorer recognizes the drive, but doesn't recognize a disc when a known good disc is inserted. Does anyone know if 3.5 Floppy support been eliminated from Windows 7? (This is an internal drive that has worked normally with other OSs.)

    HMMMMM, Thanks, djwayne. I guess I need to investigate my problem further. I have build 7022 32 bit, but that shouldn't make any difference with this issue.
