Floppy Drive Trouble

Hello everyone, new to this forum so i'm not sure if this is the right place to post my question, sorry!
Anyway my question had to do with my floppy drive. It was working fine since I bought my computer, went to update somethings on my floppy disks and now the A: drive dosen't see that the disk is in the slot/drive. It keeps telling me to insert disk which I already have done. I know that it may just be a bad floppy disk but I tried five or six different disks all with the same results. Any help would be great. thanks.

Check the power cable and both ends of the data cable. Make sure everything is plugged in tight
