To which the pickle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> shamelessly commanded:
Bring 'em on, and post to the list so we can all find out...
So I'm back. Yeah; I still have my four or so 400k floppies doin' clic-clic-clic. I
was all ears so went to Dan off-list. But, hey, the p made me do it. So now it is WE
are all ears. Tell us what it takes to rid our 400k drives of that clic-clic-clic
thing. BTW, and just to be sure we are talking the same clic-clic-clic, my 4 drives
are clicking as the follower on which the magnetic head rides is pushed by the
jackscrew to its limit making a click; retreating just a bit for but a moment; ramming
forward into its limit again making a click, over and over again. This does sound like
what you describe Dan.
