| I have the media change bug on my Mega 2. (The escape key does not always
| update the drive A directory when write protection is enabled).
|
| My Mega 2 is still under warranty. I am having trouble getting it repaired.
| Although my dealer was not aware of the problem, he replaced by drive.
| However, I still have the problem.
| Who can my dealer talk to at Atari to get information on the media change
| bug? My dealer claims he talked to Atari without success. . Although my
| dealer is an authorized Atari dealer, he is not a knowledgeable dealer.
|
| What is the fix for the media change bug? I thought replacing the drive
| would fix the media change bug.

I've seen this on my ST2 as well. It always goes away when I close the disk
and re-open it. I've only seen it twice but both times I had a RAM disk
open. Both times my floppy was NOT write protected.
