Title: Dual floppy in cpc
Post by: FRAGKI-2012 on 01:51, 09 March 14
this is my new project, i made a wooden box  and I put a 5,25 drive and a 3.5 but only one can be powered to work. So i put a switch that change the power supply and this is the result with a small problem.
the problem is that when I conect the ide cable in both drives and i turn  switch  supplies to the 5.25 drive is not possible to read discs like Icpm or large files can read small programs or games !!!
any ideas ???
all are wellcome!!
