- I've noticed with my TT that if I remove the HD and place it as far away as
- the cables will allow still connected, (HD = Hard Disk) my floppy gets a lot
- less errors, especially during writes. I've tried shielding the floppy cable
- from the HD and it helped but didn't cure the problem, but it might for you.
- Give it a try.
