hi all
i recently obtained an amiga 1200 from a friend this machine has been stored for aprox 10 years when i try inserting a disk into the floppy drive it flashes floppy light for aprox 5 seconds then just returns to insert disk screen i have tried cleaning floppy drive but still same please be specific with your solutions as i am not too familiar with this system
thanks :angry:
If it is a disk from a PC it won't work, Amiga uses a different format, if it is an Amiga disk, but is not set up for being bootable, the Amiga is looking for a bootable program disk, then it may use the unbootable Amiga format disk for a data disk. Do you have a copy of Workbench there, try it. It should boot and come up to the workbench screen
