sideburn Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Hey guys, I’ve got an odd issue here with a like new 1050 drive. It powers up perfectly. Does the initial drive stepper motor sync. I/o to computer is good. But when I power up the computer the drive spins up and just beeps every few seconds like the disk is bad. but if I wait about 15 minutes all is good and the drive works perfectly. I just re-capped everything and no change. Any ideas? I tried blasting areas with cold air but nothing suspicious yet. the heat sink is getting pretty warm. Not sure if that’s normal and I’m getting 10v a/c off the power supply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillC Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 I suggest you ask this question in the Atari 8-bit Computer forum, may not get it fixed but you shouldn't have to wait almost 3 months for a response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
