Is it set up properly in BIOS?
It should support it, if it's connected and set up properly...try an 1.2 floppy, see if the drive works?

And you have to set up BIOS according to your DRIVE type - not according to the type of DISK. So with a 1.2MB drive you set your BIOS to 1.2MB, even if you want to use a 360K disk.

Otherwise 1.2MB drives are compatible with 360K disks as long as you only use them to READ the disk. WRITING can give problems.

I already did all those thing and it do not work. I honestly don'T understand why

I have a 1.2 floppy, I dont have 360kb floppy. I tried the bios setting to 1.2mb and and I never see the light come on the drive. The the 3.5 floppy drive work thought. This is very strange

I assume that besides waiting for the light which could be screwed...you have tried using actual floppies with it?
