I have a IIe with a dou-disk drive. For some strange reason my drive will not run some store bought software that runs on other IIe's. Some of the software used to run on my computer but has stopped. The symptoms are drive activates and "growns" like it always does but then it continues to spin non-stop until I stop it. The programs that have been noticed to have problems so far are; Adventure Construction Set, Ultima III, and Ultima IV. All other software works fine. So what is wrong. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, /----------------------------------------------------------------------\ | ------- | | R.
