Hi guys, as the subject says, i have just got a complete Amiga 1000 system. The only problem is, df0 doesnt read anything. I assume its broken, as i tried to clean it without any luck. I wonder if the internal df0 is the same as in other Amiga models, or do i need a special drive?

You did get the kickstart disk with it right?

yes sir! got the kickstart disk, but the floppy cant read it either. It makes a lot of strange and loud noise


So i assume its broken...thats why i was asking if the internal df0 in the A1000 is the same than in other Amigas..

that's good, Because the A1000 won't do much with any disk with out the kickstart :-)

I say you should pick up a cheap A500 and use the Floppy from that.
