Windows falls a bit short in the plug and play arena. If you stick in something as simple as a floppy disk, nothing happens. The Windows OS is too stupid to know what to do with it... Hal, what are you talking about? My floppy was detected just fine when I had it replaced. Are you sure you plugged the power connection into the drive? Please do not post garbage like this. Windows 98 only has "trouble" with strange mixes of legacy and cutting edge hardware. Unless you were plugging in a 360K Floppy or something bizzare from the early 80's I do not see how the floppy was not detected.
