A500 replacement FDD
« on: February 16, 2007, 09:51:31 PM »
Hello guys,

I'd like to know if what happened to me happened to anybody of us or may I have an explication for this.
This is 2nd time I buy replacement for A500 internal
Floppy Disc Drivers to a well known Amiga Dealer in
Europe but when I replace the broken original FDD with
this brand new ones I can only run 5% of my floppies.
May anybody give me an explication about that since the
dealer do not answers to my email?

Thank U Very Much!

replaced the A1200 with a A500 vesalia floppy disc drivers, and I use this to write adf. with adf2disc, then when I put this floppy in my A500 with another vesalia disc drive it would be a miracle if 1/10 of the floppy would really works!!!!

:(
