Well i think i now know what the problem is when ever im trying to format any floppy disk (full format not a quick format) my system says it cant read cyclinder 0 so im guessing that 1 or both of my CIA chips are faulty.?
Um, I remember catching a virus that caused this same behaviour, I think because the virus would modify the boot sector immediately after the cylinder was formatted and before it was verified. I don't remember which virus that was. Are you sure your system is clean?
