Well, finally after all these years (well... 2 or 3) of owning several Duos picked up an Apple Minidock off the swap list. I'm having something of an odd problem with it though.
It works totally fine on my 2300c, mounts and ejects floppies, surfs with a SCSI-Ethernet adapter, etc. But, on my 280c, all it does is repeatedly pop up the "This Floppy isn't recognized" etc etc popup with the Eject and Initialize options. Hitting Eject makes it go away for a moment, but come right back a moment later. Trying to initialize just gives an error. This happens with and without a floppy drive attached, with or without a floppy inserted. Just to add a bit more mystery, the same floppy drive works fine on a Floppy microdock on the same Duo. So there's something about the minidock that's making the floppy drive not work on the minidock on the 280c, but it works fine on the 2300c. I know it's not the floppy controller on the Duo because it will use floppies fine with the other adapter. Any ideas? Scott Holder ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
