- Hi fellow Amigans,
-
- Does anyone know what particular chips/circuitry controls the
- writing of info to the floppy on a A500 ?
-
- The machine works fine reading from internal/external drives ok
- but errors on trying to write. I see from the Amiga Systems Programmers
- Manual from Abacus that the two 8250 chips partly control the floppies
- but is it just these or whot ?
-
- Any help or info would be greatly appreciated. :-)
-
- Cheers,
- Neildo.
