ok having internal floppy drive issues.

I changed the filter. I installed a 400k floppy

I tried different rom's (plus ones).

I am definitely having floppy drive issues.

one funny thing... the external always works fine. no matter what i can always boot from the external.

so my guess is IWM, or some resistor or cap or diode is screwing with me here.

when i first hooked up the 400k drive to the internal port flipped it on.. it booted ... tried it again and no dice.

the funny thing with the external port i tried 400k / 800k / even super drive external and it still boots 400k disk with out issue to the desktop.

On a rare occurrence it seems internal drive will maybe boot once.. but mainly it makes some funny groaning jittery type noise and just spits the disk out...

same with the 400k / 800k drive.

i suppose i can just always use the external drive... its just that is slightly annoying to me.
