Hmmm, thats an interesting idea.
I shall recap..... and get my GC/SGC's the right way around.
One QL has good Microdrives ( we'll call it QL A)
One QL has knackered Microdrives ( we'll call it QL B)
Both QL's work on their own.
Both QL's work with my Trump 2 card
Both QL's don't work with my SGC
QL A doesn't work with my GC
QL B works with my GC
68008 have been removed from both QL's when attempting GC & SGC
Both QL's tested using two power supplies
Both QL's have JS roms
SGC & QL B will be sent back to R.M. who hopefully will
supply me with QL C which works with SGC.
If you've been paying attention you'll be saying 'Aha,
but there's no guarantee that QL C will work with GC as this only
works with QL B thats been ditched', and you'd be right but one my
SGC works I will be selling GC.
btw, my Aurora works like a dream, if only you could attach microdrives
!!
Cheers, Neil

Ah yes - so I did.
It was with another JS I think.
Odd that, as the QL was working fine until GC was plugged in.
It is the first time I have come across something like that.
Neil - it is worth trying the ROM from the working machine in the
non-working one with GC.
