The computer reconigizes the flopyy drive is there, but when i double click on it, to read the disk, it says please insert a disk into the floppy drive.

Try re-orienting the floppy cable. 90 percent of the time this is the reason why a floppy drive isn't working.

Also, make sure the power cord is on right.
