- I have an A2000 with 2 internal floppies, 40 meg HD and 3 megs of RAM. I have
- an odd situation with my DF0: drive..... when I insert a disk, the drive light
- takes about 4 or 5 seconds to poll the disk. When I insert a disk in DF1: the
- drive light comes on the *INSTANT* the disk does in. When I use OPUS, it seems
- to take forever for the drive light to come on, and if I click on directory for
- DF0: I get "no disk present in drive DF0:" This wait seems very odd, since DF1:
- has no waiting at all. Also, is it normal for the drive lights (both) to flash
- for about a millisecond every so often, whether there is a disk in the drive or
- not? Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated. Thanks.....
