From the description you provided below all I can say is I am even MORE happy now that you volunteered to help me with fixing the drive as I would not have been able to do these things. You're a pro... or at the very least a very knowledgeable Amiga enthusiast...

Don't know if you got my latest e-mail that I sent to you but anyway I can tell you're something else (in a positive sense) when it comes to being an Amiga fan...

Thanks for the kind words. I know stuff but there's still so much I don't know. :-)

Thanks so much to Jope for the instructions on how to change the belt

Akira, i'm facing the same problem as you had with the drive spinning a little with the new belt, but not working completely. Although ten years have passed now , can you tell me what was the stupid mistake? How did you get it finally working?

Just wondering here if maybe you would know why the RocTec slim has started acting up again. Its like the drive light stays on when you put a disk in and you can hear it spinning and whirring but nothing else happening. Sounds like the rubber belt might have slipped?? It worked fine for quite some time and then one day it started doing that....
