Two problems!
 

I use win xp pro

When I hit start/restart, the computer does not restart but appears to
shutdown, i.e. the monitor powers down as if the computer is off, but I can
hear the computer fan and power still on. I must hit the reset button to
restart the computer. The computer will shut down when that option is
selecetd it happens only on restart.

ON boot up I get the message FDC failure (I know what that is) this happened
all of a sudden does it mean anything else other than floppy disc failure?

Hey, that's three problems. You said you only had two.
