FDD 3.5" 1.44M Mitsumi in my P3-550 PC stops to work correctly after Win'2000 installation. It continues to work OK under DOS and Windows 98, but under W'2000 it doesn't see filesystem on a floppy disk.

It seems that the floppy is misaligned when using Win2K
1)The floppy is being seen in the Win 98 directory,but not seen in Win 2K,the disk may be misaligned,insert the floppy and run scan disk,to check for any errors.
Iam not sure this is the solution,then you can look in Device Manager and see if their are any conflicts,check the cable connection,it may be floppy drive problem

Unfortunately, the reason was clash W2K with a beta version of Aureal card drivers :(. Sorry...
