I have connected a 1.2M 5.25" floppy to my computer. After a bit of
jumper learning and setting, it's recognized and reads my old DD and

under DOS, Win98, or WindowsXP. Which all read fine.
Make sure that "WRITE GATE" goes low (use a logic probe) on pin 24 of
the drive while you do your write. If so, your floppy write circuitry
has a problem. I.e., it's not the cable.
