I want to hook up an 'old' 5.25 floppy as an external drive to my Laptop.
Has anybody tried this before, how did you do it ? Or any other suggestions on how to do this more than welcome. Cheers ! :confused:

Did you ever get this done? I am trying to hook up external floppy to an Omnibook xe4100. I have the correct ext drive and cable but can't get the laptop to recognize it. I hope I will not have to remove the dsyfunctional internal floppy drive first, because the manual says that you should be a professional repair person or something to do this.
Any advise will be appreciated

Start another thread, this thread is over two years old, your new thread will get more attention, leeching off old threads isnt a good thing...
