- Hi,
-
- I have a problem with my inteernal disk drive on my A500 and I'm pretty
- sure it is the alignment.
-
- A disk written on my internal drive can be read on my external drive
- but not on my friend's drives (noticed this with two different
- friends/amigas). Likewise, disks written on my friends' amigas can
- be read on my external drive but not on my internal. I also have
- trouble with new software, particularily copy protected games which
- must be booted from df0: (I'm still at WB1.3 ;( sniff...
-
- A disk alignment kit costs about the same price as a new drive!
-
- I am wondering if anyone out there knows what to adjust in the drive
- to alter the alignment. I believe I can carefully adjust it
- and verify my progress by attempting reads on disks from my friends.
-
-
- Please help! It's really a pain and has plagued me for a LONG time.
