I have 3 floppy drives that will write to a floppy, but can't read a floppy. I can initialize disks, but it will always fail when to goes to verify.
Any idea what's going on? How I can troubleshoot it? I've tried scrubbing the heads with alcohol and a qtip. On one of them I got it to read once. It'd read 800k floppies, but when I stick in a 1.4MB floppy, it'd ask to format it as single sided or double sided. It's a Sony 2MB drive (says so on the sticker.)
Thanks
