floppy disk(s) fail (80) issues...

I have a kt600 dragon plus board that WAS in working condition for a
long time until I received a floppy disk(s) fail (80).

Here are the steps I took to trouble shoot this issue:

a) I tried the floppy drive in another computer and the cable. They
both work without getting the floppy disk(s) fail (80) error. When I
moved the floppy drive and its' cable to the computer i'm trying to
fix I get that error.

b) played around with the cable and flipped it in the other direction
and the light on the floppy drive stayed lit which means the cable is
in backwards(I think) so i swapped it back. The twised part of the
cable is going into the drive along with the red wire on the cable on
pin one(arrow points to that section on the drive)

What I don't understand is even though I get floppy disk(s) fail (80),
when I try and install windows the light on my floppy drive lights up
then stops. I hit F6 then S to install my raid drivers from the
floppy disk and the light on the drive lights up but I get Please
insert the Manufacturers Disk.... Esc... I took that same floppy disc
and inserted it into another computer and did the same process to see
if the disk works; I get the list of drivers to pick from in the
windows installation process. So, I know the floppy disk works.

I'm wondering if it's the Floppy disk controller on the mother that is
bad? Oh and my FDC is enabled in bios.

Much help is greatly appreciated.

-Thanks,
Rich
