I hope someone out in netland can help with this problem:

For reasons better left unmentioned,  an external floppy was unplugged from
my Amiga 500 while it was powered up and the cpu A500 was dropped approx.
5 inches.  Now the internal drive will not poll and look for the disk.
However,  if a disk (workbench) is in the drive at power up or warm 
reboot it will load up just fine.  The local Official Amiga Store thinks
that the internal drive is shot and I need to order another from Commodore.
Has anyone else out there heard of a similar problem??
    PLEASE HELLLLPPPP!!!!  I need my computer for class.  Just in case I 
need a news drive,  does anyone have one they would like to sell ( a A2000
int. drive will not fit into the case) or maybe a dead A500 sitting around
gathering dust.
			Thanks in advance,
				WFJ
