Try masking off pin 34.
By masking off you simply mean disconnecting,
correct? It's not that I don't know, I'm merely
testing you.
Methinks Fred has forgotten more about floppy drives than you could ever
learn... ;-)
Sort of sounds like the utility that came with the
Zenith Minisport. The firmware had the ability to
"take over" the command prompt of the computer it was
attached to. Different now that I'm looking at it
again, but the intention was the same, due to the fact
that the MS came with a 2.5" floppy drive, and warez
were never supplied on that medium.
Minor nitpick: The MiniSport came with 2.0" floppy drive(s).
