I already figured out that my problem must be a Hardware problem because I had the same problem with my original drive when I bought my Mega ST and my Atari dealer had to add two cables into my drive to fix it. Unfortunaly the new drive I bought is internally totally different from the original one so that I cannot just copy these cables to the new one and I have no idea WHAT really was done by adding those two cables. >I may be wrong on this, of course. I will look at the Profibuch again to >make sure. I might also try the ATari Floppy Buch. (Both from SYBEX, both >in German) Please do so and tell me if you can find out anything that might help me finding out how to modify my drive. ... see you Chris ____________________________________________________________________________ | cccccc sssss Chris Schmidt | ccc ccc ss sss | ccc ccc ss s It takes two years Universitaet Dortmund | cccc ssssss to learn how to talk, West Germany | cccc ssssss but it takes at least | ccc ccc s ss twenty to learn NOT scm1817%marvin.irb@ | ccc ccc sss ss to talk !!! unido.uucp | cccccc sssss ______________________|_____________________________________________________
