Three of my disks have died over the last few weeks. By died I mean that there is a read error when the drive tries to read from certain files on the disk and maybe even when the disk is being accessed at all. The disks with the problem are all different brands, so I think that my floppy drive is dirty and might be causing the problem. I only have one floppy drive in my SE along with the Hard Drive so it has been getting a lot of use since I got my computer in Sept. '88. To get to the point: I am right in thinking that a dirty drive is causing the problem? Have anyone else had this problem and has cleaned their drive in an attempt to fix it? Did it work? What cleaner did you use? Please help, Loring
