/* Other Errors at this point */ Improve presentation : turn big paragraph into easy-to-read QA thanks to "description list" markup.
=== Other Errors at this point ===
- ; Bad Command? : Floppy drive detected by cpc but is not powered. Recheck your powersupply is connected and working. - ; You turn on the cpc and both drives act-as-one .. and the floppy light is constantly on? : Most likely you didnt short pin 33 & 34 : .. is the paperclip/wire loose? : .. or did you accidentally short pin 1 & 2 instead? Try moving the paperclip to the other end of the connector. - ; Read error on drive? Disc hasnt been formatted yet? : Use software like Discology to quickly format drive B : .. or to quicky copy a disc from A to B : .. or make a test floppy on pc (see transfer bit later). - ; Disc is write protected error? : Make sure the write tab on the disc is down (move tab down on right side of disc).
