- Both LEDs on the front come on and stay on
permanently. My
understanding is that the access light should turn off after about two
seconds.
Does the motor spin?
- If the drive is hooked up to my C128 at powerup, the
128 will hang
after displaying the startup banner (I assume it's waiting for a
response from the drive and not getting one...)
Yup.
- If a disk is in the drive, the disk will spin for a
second or so and
the heads will seek back to track zero.
That's a good sign, but does the light go out? It sounds like it doesn't.
I'm leaning towards the FDC (should be a WD1770 or 1772 in the 1581).
