On A2K Which Chip Runs the FD?
« on: March 24, 2005, 01:56:29 AM »
Hi -
The floppy drives on my A2K do not work
anymore?  Which custom chip on the A2K motherboard
runs the floppy drives?

Hello,

The CIA Chips are usually the problem with FDD not working.
As a quick test swap the CIA Chips.

Cheers

Thanks - I have extras of both.  I'll swap them around and see what gives.
