TonVH Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 wanted to check the Rom version because I want to upgrade it to 2.x. After opening I discovered that the floppy drive is lying loose i.e. unattached by screws or whatever. Also I see no way to fix it in a fixed position. See attachments. Is that correct? Also (picture 2) a "thing" was lying loose. Anyone know what this is for or where it is supposed to be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonVH Posted January 29, 2018 Author Share Posted January 29, 2018 Solved. It is a bit dumb construction. The "thing" is supposed to be in a hole and keeps the diskdrive in place. No screws or whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLund1 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 3 long screws go up through the centers of the black standoff, from the outside underside of the case. You probably removed them to get the top case off, not knowing they hold the FD in place. When reassembling, install these 3 screws first into the FD before attempting to put the top case on.

TonVH Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 Correct. I removed them because when all visible crews were removed hen the cover could sill not be lifted. It was only much later that I discovered a screen under a sticker. But it is all now corrected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
