Okay, I've dug my A1200 out of storage and works fine, except for the floppy. It powers up, spins the disk, that's it. After opening it up, I notice that the head isn't moving. Well, the motor works. It just looks like it is stuck or hindered in some way. I removed the motor and it seems to be fine. Put it back in, same as before.
I won an A3000 case on ebay a few months back that came with a dead motherboard, power supply, and floppy. I've hooked up that floppy and it works great. Only, it is too tall and possibly too long. Has anyone gotten an A3000 floppy to fit into an A1200?
I've shortened the A3000 floppy caseing and have gotten it to fit I think. I haven't tried screwing the case back together. As the the floppy will occasionaly hit something and short causing a reboot. I'm trying to figure out what it is shorting on (I think the shielding) and if I can insulate it with out loosing the nice fit I have now.
