Operating
Procedure
There may be a faulty cable connection. Check
the connection to the computer and to the drive.
The software or hardware configuration may be
causing a problem. Make sure the hardware
configuration matches your software needs.
Try another diskette. If you can access the
diskette, the original diskette (not the drive) is
probably causing the problem.
If problems persist, contact your dealer.
