What I did when a floppy would behave strangely and you can try it too. Not 100% but 70% success.Take a wooden match or toothpick insert it in the rectangular hole move the disk a bit put it in the drive and try.Sometimes you have to do it a few times.If it works copy it to the HD and throw the floppy away.
