Didn't use my machine for five minutes and I'm hating it already.

Why are floppies just so awfully flacky? The whole workbench disk set is broken, it seems.
I can't get any disk to work and I haven't even checked the Magic Pack bundle yet.

The fun is over long before it even started :(

Before you toss the floppys as bad,take the drive apart and clean the heads in it. all it takes is one bad floppy to dirty them to the point they won't read.
Also the worm gear on the stepper motor that moves the head often had a problem with the old lithium grease getting hard and it cannot move properly.
