Is this normal? What can I do? Should I Might be a power supply issue. If you disconnect either the floppy or the hard disk, does the other work fine? How about the floppies you've been using? Are they low-density? If not, and the SE isn't set up to read HD disks, that's your problem. >take the disk drive out of the second Classic and replace it with the one >in the SE?

It'll likely say FDHD or Superdrive on the front if it can. the pickle FAQ <http://macfaq.org/index.shtml> Software Archive <ftp://download:[EMAIL PROTECTED]//Users/thepickl/Sites/Archive/> <http://www.members.jmug.org/%7Ethepickl/archive/> _________________________________________________________________ -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
