I really can't recall if I've had a disk stuck in the drive for sure, I know there have been a few times where I had to play to get them off (mainly due to loose metal flaps on the disk or the spring in the floppy deciding to unspring) but I did get them out in a relatively short period of time. I've been living with the problem for about a year now…It's finally driving me nuts.. On a related topic…A friend of mine gave me his old Internal floppy when he got a Internal HD for his 500. I tried installing it but when I turned the power on, the drive light went on and just stayed on and the computer would not boot. Any Ideas what would cause this? Replacing my original drive the computer would work just fine. Craig Glaser
