Help! My 1541 thinks there is a permanent write protect tab!  I can read
files fine, but I cannot write anything to any disks, it gives me a 'write
protect' error.  Does anyone know how to fix this?  I think it is a software
problem turned hardware problem.  I recently got the newest version of Kermit
from a friend, who neglected to inform me that the 'kermit-boot' file was
for C128's.  So I loaded it and ran it.  It gave a 'no block' error. THEN
I listed it and found it was for C128.  Ever since that point I have been
unable to write with my disk drive. PLEASE HELP!

thanx in advance.
