My unit is a converted Model III and it does have       the tiny, orange trim pot on the motherboard.

I can replace the single-sided drives with double-sided and they       work fine in single-sided mode.              You can also put 800K 3.5" floppy drives in and run them as quad density -- 80       track, double density double sided (I think that's QD, but maybe that's the       wrong term.) At any rate if you can find a 1.44 MB drive then look for a 800K       jumper. There may        be instructions online for this but 3.5" media might be a little more durable       or easier to find and faster possibly too.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
