This is my first message to the list, as I just subscribed. The floppy drive in my beige G3 is being temperamental - not working more often than it is working. When I put a floppy in the drive, I get a window that tells me the disk is unreadable by this computer, and asks if I want to initialize it. It's happened enough that I'm sure it's not the disks.
Could it be the reader, and if so how would I check and fix that? I think it's the floppy drive and/or its cable, so the next question is, can I replace it with the drive and cable that are in my defunct PowerMac 7500?
