Thanks for your answere but unfortunaly this does not help me at all.
I already figured out that my problem must be a Hardware problem because
I had the same problem with my original drive when I bought my Mega ST and
my Atari dealer had to add two cables into my drive to fix it.

Unfortunaly the new drive I bought is internally totally different from
the original one so that I cannot just copy these cables to the new one and
I have no idea WHAT really was done by adding those two cables.

Please do so and tell me if you can find out anything that might help me
finding out how to modify my drive.


... see you
