Subject: Disk drive fault 04 - is there any hope?
I'm trying to revive a BBC Master with a Viglen dual 5.25" floppy disk
drive. All I get when I try to access the drive is the sound of a
spinning disc, clicking of the head across the disc, and eventually the
error "Disc fault 04 at :0 00/13" or similar. I think the error means
the disc head is misaligned. Is there anything practical I can do (I'm
not an electronics whizz) or should I bin the drive and buy another?
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Kevin Doyle
