|    Tandy 1000 SX Floppy Issue    |
|    22 Oct 15 11:19:40    |
      From: tandy1000sx@gmail.com              I have a Tandy 1000 SX whose floppy suddenly started working. Powers up, but       motor refuses to spin. I've tried the obvious - a different Tandy friendly       cable, different floppy drive, making sure the floppy drive works in another       PC, checked dip switch        settings. None of the obvious fixed or diagnosed the issue, so I went as far       as to replace the controller and data separator IC chips. Still nada               Can anything in here think of anything I am overlooking before I attempt to       diagnose the problem with an oscilloscope or just replace the motherboard?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
