Dream Machine

[rich ruscio]

A muse and an epiphany all in one day, with coffee on top. Lucky guy.

This message msg# 17137 suggested the same - the screws are too long.

My working presumption is that is a highly likely correct diagnosis. And, if I ever get my home office back to the state where I'm caught up with my paperwork, have all the rebates done, can see my desk again (hell, can see my floor again), and am comfortable that the new built machine is stable (I'm not so, yet), then maybe I'll try the floppy fix.

Since I've only needed a working floppy drive for the F6 RAID driver load, and not at all over the past few years, this clearly falls into the 'technical curiosity' category.

Good news is that VISTA already had the drivers, just in case I want to touch that 3rd rail ...

Thanks for all the help,
