Default Floppy Drive won't recognize disks


Got a question I want to shotgun to the board.

I have scores, or maybe even hundreds of old 1.44 floppy discs on which
I used to back up my data. However, I haven't had a floppy drive in my
last 3 or 4 PCs. I'm thinking about buying one of those external floppy
drives to see if I can salvage some of the old data (primarily pictures
& music) for use on my Vista OS machine. Has anyone tried this and if
so, can you recommend an external floppy drive that will work with
Vista?
