- My 3.5 inch 1.44M disk drive is getting lots of read errors on disks that
- used to read OK, which suggests to me that the heads need aligning.
-
- Is there some easy way to do this myself? I have the impression of having
- seen kits with a combo of software and a special alignment disk. I'm
- pretty handy with a screwdriver but don't have an oscilloscope.
