Hello,
I have some problems with a 8250LP, connected to a C128Dcr via IEC2IEEE
(http://www.nlq.de/)
The floppy reacts to a reset of the C128Dcr. I can read the status
(73,CBM DOS V2.7,00,00,0). Anyway, if I enter LOAD "$0",11 (the drive
is #11), I only get "SEARCHING FOR $0", and the machine hangs there.
This is independant of weather there is a disc in the drive or not;
using drive 1 (that is, LOAD "$1",11), the same occurs. Additionally,
the drive does not start to spin.
I tried to format a disc (using OPEN 1,11,15,"N0:TEST,13"). With this,
the drive starts spinning, but I cannot hear the R/W head move.
For of all: Is this commend for formatting correct? (I did not find a
manual about the 8250LP). Additionally, does anyone have an idea of what
could be wrong with the drive?
Regards,
Spiro.
