   c64 dataset load

   has anyone here seen an issue like I'm having?   
      
   I write a simpl program in basic on my c64   
   I then type save "programname"   
   my c64 says press play and record   
   then I rewind the tape.   
   I attempt to load the program.   
      
   load "programname"   
      
   The motor on the dataset starts up and I press play on the tapedrive.   
   c64 stops the tape and says found programname   
   then when it attempts to load the program the dataset makes noise like the   
   moder wants to run, but it doesn't spin the tape (the play button is   
   depressed).   
      
   so odd. I can't tell if my dataset tape drive is actually saving the data, or   
   why it won't complete the loading process.   
      
   Any ideas would be awesome.
