- I do have a similar problem, but with reading the tapes (not just with only
- formatting).
- when I try to read any tape I will get the msg: "tape not servoed"
- And this ist nonsense, because I can use the tapes with a friends streamer.
- I disassembled the tapedrive to remove any alien things like dust,...
- nothing works, since I have no technical experience in repairing tapedrives
- WITHOUT THE MANUAL (it`s been "second hand").
-
- So: Is this problem known to someone - or does someone knows the
- german distributor for IRWIN 285 Floppy-based-tapedrives or at least a good
- service station?
-
- thanks in advance, Ulrich
