Iv'e attached a note from someone else (slightly edited) which describes two
fixes for this STE bug.
One bug I've found with the new 520STe is that it doesn't recal medium
resolution. I just spoke to Atari's help line and they say there are
two fixes for this.
One is edit DESKTOP.INF and change the last byte in the #E C4 12 line
for 13 (or 03 if the last byte was a 02, the 1 selects verifying file
deletion). (I've read in another document that this is supposed to be 01
for low rez, 02 for med rez, and 03 for hi rez, but the support desk
say set to 03)
You can also send them a blank disk and they return it with MEDRES.PRG
which is put in the AUTO folder and also fixes the problem.
Their address: Atari Helpdesk,
P.O. BOX 200,
Dartford.
KENT.
