Sounds to me like there's either something wrong with the floppy drive, or perhaps the controller. About the only thing it could be, aside from a spate of bad disks. >And Scott, what is this chip upgrade you wrote? Can you give me more details? I'm a little fuzzy on this one myself, and I may be be confusing it with the non-Superdrive SEs, but I believe there was what was called a SWIM chip upgrade made that allowed Pluses to use HD disks. It was pricy in its day, and is somewhat rare now. Scott Holder -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
