Byron, It sounds to me that your 1541 has a disk head alignment
problem. I have a friend that had the very same problem.
We (He and I) aligned the head on his 1541, and the problem
was corrected, however it came back in a few days. We finaly
had to pin the shift that controls the head movement up and
down the disk, while trying to write or read. The disk drive
has been running now for months. If I can be of any further
help, drop me a line via E-mail (ubsims@ecsvax) Univ. of
