hi everyone 😉
got something weird that just happened...
my 3.5 disk drive was working fine.
tryed to install a new game i found. so put in the disk.
trying to make it work, was quite hard ....decided to take a better look at it...
that little metal plate was stuck....ok fine i force it a little and there , it slide again.
try the disk back.....make weird sounds...
can't read disk (abord, retry, fail)
oh well.. its busted ?
Lets try another floppy
can't read disk (abord, retry, fail)
weird... ok ill try the game i installed yesterday just to be sure...
can't read disk (abord, retry, fail)
😮...
after many tries.... restart and unplugging... the floppy drive seems dead....
i can hear it ...but cant read, access or format disk.
so i decided to plug a new 3.5 Floppy drive.
ah everything works now 😀 ....so....let s try that first game that didnt want to install..
can't read disk (abord, retry, fail)
wai ...what !?
*try all the previous disk*
.... end up with can't read disk (abord, retry, fail) again..
now the new floppy drive i installed have the very same problem then my previous one...
.....what the hell, anyone know anything about this kind of silly problem ? can a floppy disk destroy a floppy drive 😮
even if they're old....those old dos games are still the best!!!
