Frequently asked questions
Why doesn’t the Safety Remove Hardware icon appear on the taskbar when
the drive is connected?
The computer does not recognize the floppy disk drive. First, make sure the USB
cable is properly connected to the USB port. If you need to secure the
connection, wait a few moments for the computer to recognize the drive. If the
icon still does not appear, follow these steps:
1 Close all programs that were opened from the disk and wait for the LED
indicator to turn off.
2 Push the Eject button, and remove the disk.
3 Reconnect the floppy disk drive by inserting the USB connector (with the
USB icon
facing upward) into the USB port .
4 Restart the computer by clicking Start on the Windows® taskbar, Turn Off
Computer, and then Restart.
Why is the drive unable to write data to a floppy disk?
The floppy disk drive cannot write data to a disk if it is inserted into the drive
improperly. See “Inserting and removing floppy disks” for instructions on how to
insert the disk properly.
If the disk is inserted properly and you are still unable to write data to it, the disk
may be write-protected. You can either use a floppy disk that is not write-
protected or disable the write-protect feature.
