When I turn the machine on, it just says "Check Disk Drive," even if I put a disk in it.  If I have a disk in it before I turn it on, it loads the disk.  Is there a command/button combo to get it to read a disk I insert AFTER I turn it on?

Any list of key combos/commands would be useful and appreciated :)
 At the BASIC prompt (which from memory looked like either ] or >) type PR#6 Enter to boot from 5.25" internal drive, or PR#5 to boot from external 3.5" Unidisk (if it has the updated MON ROM, the original ROM in earlier //c shipped did not have the intelligence to recognise and use 3.5" diskette drives).

All this is from memory, without checking, I could be wrong.

If you do  not see the BASIC prompt, press reset (if it has a reset key) as then I think the BASIC prompt should appear. Another possibility might be Control-C or Control-C Enter
