ralphb Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 I have a slim floppy drive (with standard TI controller) that can read disks alright, but I can't initialize or write to it (but could in the past). In DM2, I get error >41 when trying to write the first byte during initialization. Does anyone have any suggestions what might cause this behavior? My first guess was the write-protect detection mechanism, but there isn't anything wrong that I can see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
