I got some weird Floppy Disk failure message & it was asking me to insert some floppy.
i just pushedt he restart button the same thing.
I fidgeted with the wires in the PC n it started working but some weird noise is coming.
Why is this happening?
why this error message?
what should I do now?

check if the wire is not touching the cpu fan.
this error may have occurred due to floppy disk malfunctioning or due to your own tests and cheera chari with the pc. (if you have done any)
He was trying to buy more sand for his hour glass.

If you never worked with PCs before I'll recommend that please don't take risk. You might electrocute yourself. Ask someone to look at it who really knows how to fix it.

No need for a new computer, just open up the box and disconnect the power cable to the floppy drive. Na rahe ga baans na bajay gi baansuri!!
It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man!

Floppy drives are good for kids to play with so instead of " VCR" they can put their PB&J sandwiches in the floppy drives.

New internal floppy drive will cost you $15-$20, external will cost you $20-$30.
If your PC has PCI slot, then PCI to USB (4-USB ports) converter can be had for $10-$15. A USB jump drive (1GB-4GB) can be had for $5. Do the maths.

floppy?
Here's what the floppy has to say to you:
