It shouldn't.
I assume you're in a tower case? You might want to try the ol' secondary power feed trick. Instead of using the power header on the motherboard to power the floppy drive, you can plug a PSU lead in there to stabilize some of the power rails - the regular power connection sometimes isn't enough. Power the floppy drive directly from the PSU.
I've never done this though, so you might want to wait for details from someone who has before trying it.
