Re: Conflicts with floppy? Where do I start?

Thanks for the quick responses, pleased that the a2 scene is still so
thriving.

I'll definitely try swapping the cards around, being sure to leave the
80 column card in the AUX slot. Is there a document which recommends
some sort of best practice when allocating slots? I thought I heard
that having a card in the AUX slot will disable slot 3.

I can also confirm that the duodisk is comcpletely out of the
equation: They use different cards so I removed the duodisk card
completely and put in the disk ][ card in it's place.
