Cable is loose. Open up the PC again. There should be two cables to the floppy drive. If you mount the white connector cable the wrong way up, you need to buy a new floppy drive now.
If the green LED is on continiously, the data cable is mounted the wrong way up. But the floppy drive won't be broken when that cable was wrong.
Also check the data cable (gray, flat) for ruptures.
You might also just have bad floppies. There are extremely unreliable.

Your version of workplace could be 2007, yet no longer homestead windows. Floppy disks are 'fragile' and because they are older technologies (magnetic disks), they grow to be corrupted truly. attempt a clean floppy disk, yet first, shop your brochure on your hard force so which you do no longer lose it.

You probberbly pull out the cable accsidently. Just root around in there and look for and IDE that may be loose.
