My computer isn't coming up under my computer, can anyone tell me what to do to get it installed
 
Is it running under Terminal Services?? If so, you need to share your floppy out so that TS can see it as a device. You need to make sure you map a drive to the share when you log onto TS. Works for floppies and cd-roms.

Sorry if this is not the case....
 
If this is not fixed yet....
Try going to Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager
There you want to right-click and choose "Scan for hardware changes". Sometimes devices have errors and windows un-installs the device. go figure ;-).
