problem viewing contents of floppy disk
I have Dell Inspiron 8100 with XP Professional.
Recently I am having a problem viewing contents of floppy disks. I have tried different floppies. I have copied files onto floppy. However when I go to SAFE MODE I could see the contents but not in normal mode Any help will be appreciated Thanks Nick

I would remove the floppy drive from the Device Manager and restart Windows, so that the device is re-detected and the drivers are re-installed. -- (tm)
