Cool, did you have to mess with the jumpers at all? Also when you say small jumper block are you referring to the 4 pin or 10 pin block? Anyways congrats man glad it worked out for you!!!

With the small jumper setting I mean the 2x2 pin block. You need one jumper, diagonal at the left (parralel at number zero). The other one is a 5x2 pin block. There you need two jumpers. At the 1st en 4th. I hope I explained it correct. By the way: Are the even bigger ones?

Yeah there is a larger block that requires 5 jumpers, I posted a pic of the diagram a while back. Thanks for the info though!

so i ve never opened up my mpc
what is a jumper?
my floppy died and i need to fix it fast
...and the TEAC FD-235HF will work w/60 mk2(just checking)
i have no idea on tech issues with my machine
i guess i need to do more time unearthing the techniques of maintence

Let me know if any1 got those jumper settings that DJames posted (in the 60 FAQ) 2 work on their floppy drive. I got a drive that Teac FD-235HF with the big jumper blocc on the bacc and I can't get my 60 2 recognize it.

I'm pretty sure the drive works but have no way 2 confirm 4 sure. The diagram also indicates 3 pathways (4 lacc of correct terminology) on the jumper blocc but the blocc on my drive has 4. All suggestions welcome. -uno-

does anyone have a diagram of the jumpers in the smaller block?
i have a 5x2 jumper block which is recgonized by the 60, i just cant format a floppy
holla

ok i figured it out

i have fd-235h-4429

jumpers are connected on A&B and D&E on the #2 side
