Sounds like an intonation problem to me too, I recently did this on my Ibanez, I used this site for help.
Edit: it has instructions for floyds too.

Check the notes after the 12th fret and see if they are in the correct note or not. If not than it is an intonation problem if they are the correct notes than it is some other problem. Intonating my guitar is easy. I tune the open string to the correct note and than I fret the twelve fret and compare it to the open fretted note. If they are the same no need for intonating it. If they aren't I simply turn my saddle screw clockwise if the fretted note is sharp (away from the pickup and fret board) and counterclockwise if the note is flat (toward the pickup and fret board). I keep doing this process until it is as close as I can get it. But I have a problem that my saddles reached the maximum end in many of my strings and I cannot adjust them any longer.
