- Does anybody know where I can get a 14pin connector for the external
- floppy on a 1040STfm? (Preferably in OZ or mail order...)
-
- These next bits must be FAQ, but I don't know where the FAQ is :(
-
- 1. What happens if I plug a 1.44M floppy drive in? I assume it will
- behave as a 720k. Is there an easy way to get a 1.44 recognized?
- (Like a new bios?)
- 2. What adapters exist for MFM and IDE drives, how much do they cost
- (again pref in OZ) etc.
-
- Please reply by email, and cc to 9107373@zeppo.cs.su.oz.au as my account
- may die...
-
- Thanks
