Hi!
Reassembling my a1200 into desktop after some years without use, my floppy drives dont work anymore, i try without hd and dont boot just three or four tipical clicks of autobooting, on wb df0: appears sometimes like df0:
??, after trying with three fdd´s in my two a1200 mobos (commodore and escom) two of them without very use in the past with the sae results.
Anyone with same problems or with experience with it?
On amigakit i found this:
http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=29&products_id=276
Maybe this can be usefull or just the same as ever?
Thanks and merry xmas!
