When you run the SuperCard Pro it will tell you if there is no board present. If you see that message then it would be a driver installation issue. If you don't see that message, then the problem is communication between the SuperCard Pro and the drive.
I program and test every board before they are shipped, so I am confident that the board is working. The first thing the board does is a power-on self test. The pretty lights would be all rapidly flashing if there was any type of problem with the board. I test the power cable (I make those), but I don't test the floppy cable because that is something that I purchase brand new (I would think they are ok, and I have not had any bad ones so far). Do you know that the floppy drive you have actually works? Have you tested it with a PC? A drive will not make any noise or light up (unless it has a LED, and only a few models do) when there is power. So, you can't tell much about the drive connection just from looking or listening to the drive when it gets power.
