Lines: 13 My 512K Mac is refusing to read any disks. Both the internal and external drives are 400K. I can get the internal drive to read one system disk, but no others, and the external drive won't even accept that (even though the disks work fine on other systems). I am also unable to format new disks. I suspect the alignment may have been thrown off during a recent move. Any ideas on how to fix this? I have access to any test equipment I need (scopes, meters, etc.), but have no idea where to start. Anyone know what to do, or have a source of info? thanks, Mike Tektronix, Vancouver, WA gaulandm@tekigm2.men.tek.com
