Here are some pics of the JM215A that a friend and I modified: http://m.flickr.com/#/photos/<http://m.flickr.com/#/photos/krunkwerke/6024390494/> krunkwerke/6024390494/ <http://m.flickr.com/#/photos/krunkwerke/6024390494/> at the moment, the drive powers but, the Emax is still displaying "Please Insert Disk!". Any ideas? Everything tested accurately with the continuity tester. Any advice is greatly appreciated. -s* On Mon, Aug 8, 2011 at 11:35 AM, Ted Summers <djtbs1@...> wrote: > Send me pics of the mods made so far and I can see if anything is wrong > there.... > > > On Mon, Aug 8, 2011 at 7:26 AM, Scott Stanley <scartattack@...> > wrote: > > > ** > > > > > > My friend and I recently modded a JM215A for a Teac slim floppy drive > using > > Ted's instructions: > > > > *JM215A Modifications: > > > > Bottom of Board > > FDC Pin2 connects to ITX pin 11.
