the hardware configuration meets its needs.
A diskette will not go into the diskette drive.
You may already have a diskette in the drive. Make sure the
drive is empty.
You may be inserting the diskette incorrectly. Hold the
diskette with the hub side facing down, and insert it so that
the metal head window cover goes into the drive first.
The metal cover or a loose label may be obstructing the
path into the drive. Carefully inspect the diskette. If the metal
cover is loose, replace the diskette. If the label is loose,
replace the label and try inserting the diskette again.
