Long boot time A1200 floppy
« on: November 20, 2006, 06:23:50 PM »
I have a 1200 that from cold start seems to take an extra long time to boot from the floppy inside it (about 5 minutes before it kicks into action). It has no hard disk.
And yet once its booted the first time it takes the usual 30 seconds or whatever on a subsequent cold boot. Any ideas? Its a bit annoying  :-?

Sorry that looks a bit misleading. The 1200 in question is not the one in my sig.
