no clicking floppy
Hello!
Could someone point out what I am doing wrong please? My A1200 floppy no longer is recognized as I start to boot up.The green power light comes up and the floppy drive orange light as well but that's as far as I can get it to go.I have two spare motherboards and have used both of them with the same result.I have two new floppy drives and they make no difference when I swap them out.I have also swapped out the floppy drive cable as I have a spare...........er help......I honestly dont know what to do next....I could use WinUAE to get my fix but I would rather not.....and then some Thanks in advance Dave |

I plugged my floppy cable in in-correctly once and got this sort of result - have you checked the cable is plugged in correctly to the drive and the motherboard...

it sure sounds like the cable is on backwards.
