heres a cheap new floppy drive if you want to go that route still.

The CD-ROM drive works perfectly, but at this screen, when i put in the CD, there is no interaction at all.

Thanx for the link, but i will look for one in my area before i buy it online, im not a big fan of online Shopping.

Did you change the settings in the bios so it can boot from the CD rom drive ?

Ok i Jus did that and it started the Windows XP installation. Everything loaded Correctly and everything, then it tells me that there is no Hard drive Connected to the Computer. So i guess the Hard drive is obviously no good. So i guess i dont need the Floppy Drive anymore. Now i have to get a Hard drive. :thumbsup1:

Before you simply jump to that conclusion, check the cables and the jumper is set to the right position. Also make sure it's getting power, make sure the molex connector is firmly in place.

The Jumper was on CS Enabled, i Just Placed it on Master. Im going to Try Tommorow to Install Windows
