Hi All,
I'm trying to install workbench 3.0 on my A1200 with newly fitted HDD. I can run the install program and I get to the point where it asks me to insert the amiga workbench disk in any floppy drive. I put the correct disk and in it immediately flashes the screen and says 'Please insert the correct disk to continue'. I have inserted the correct disk which I know works. The thing that's worrying me is that the drive makes no attempt to read. The screen just flashes instantly and asks me to insert the correct disk. I assume the mechanism that tells the drive that a disk has been inserted/removed isn't working.
Does sound like the case to the more knowledgeable here? Is there anything I can besides buy a replacement drive?

Are you using the floppy to boot with? Sounds like a strange problem. Also, you have to boot from the Install 3.0 disk if you want to install workbench on a new HDD.
Can you hear the trademark Amiga floppy drive "click" every few seconds? (Only heard with no disk in drive)
