If the cables are properly seated you may need to replace the drive.

Howdy:

Just an addendum to Scott's answer, but did you format the floppy in the WinXP system?

For some strange reason, XP doesn't like floppies that were formatted in anything other than an XP system.. preferably the one you will be reading from..
