CD-RW and floppy issues

I recently rebuilt my computer and upgraded from Win98SE to XP. Ever since I upgraded, my floppy drive seems to be REALLY slow. Is this my imagination? Do I need to replace it?
Also, I just bought a new Sony CD-RW 48x. The drive seems to work, but MusicMatch jukebox and Roxio EZ-CD creator will not recognize this drive as available for burning. Now I can only use the software that came with the drive to burn CDs. Is this normal?

Yes, thanks, I have the upgrade and the patch installed. It worked with my old burner, but will not recognize my new one.

just wait until Roxio releases a new patch, they take time to add support to newer burners, that happended to me with an Aopen 20X, bought a month of being released and Roxio added support 2 months later.
