Oh, okay, thanks. Well, I'll track down some lubing chemicals and such and I'll give it a go on that floppy drive.

JDW recently suggested to me that I upload pics of the drive as that would be more effective than just describing my problem. I certainly agree, but I'll be a bit busy for the next week or two. But after that, I'll find a camera and photograph the drive where my questions are concerned, etc. So pictures are coming soon!
