Completely unnecessary and uncool wish for WinUAE :)

I know it sound really stupid but is it possible to make the actual floppy drive in my PC grind and make noise (with a disk inside) when playing from adf's?

If it's not too much work could it be done? I know there is floppy sound emulation but it comes from the speakers (could it be made so it comes from the PC speaker?)

Already done, just install this: http://simonowen.com/fdrawcmd/

Does it say anything about the floppy sound on that page? At least I could not find anything about this matter on there...

Why should it? It is just a floppy driver that winuae (mis)uses.

Yet another cool option I never heard about. Works great here. After the installation, "PC floppy drive A/B" should be listed under "Floppy Drive Sound Emulation"

Same here... Now if I already hadn't got a real miggy here, I'd seriously consider buying a different mainboard for my i5-system for this totally unnecessary but cool feature, because my current one lacks a floppy controller
