I owned the 520st it was a brilliant computer for its time, i upgraded it to a 1040, the major flaw was the mouse port connection was a weak point had it repaired a few times, then started repairing it myself in the end, great find for the money. 😊😊

I see a 1A, maybe it's reading G4? EDIT: I looked it up, G stands for GET or "read" error... disk errors G3, G4, G5, head need cleaning or disk has bad sector or alignment on the drive.

Enjoy your videos. What percentage of the theoretical sale price do you typically offer? about 50%?

You killed your disk...

[@gameselectronicsrus3909]

Tested it in another drive and its good.

AAAHHH! 😱🙀😩😫😓😞😣😖NEVER NEVER EVER turn off or on the disk drive with a disk in it! You probably destroyed the disk seeing you did this several times. That may be why it worked the first time. I guess you never worked with floppy disk drives before. 😫

@@puffpuffin1 I normally don’t do that but I find myself doing that sometimes when testing. I used these disks in another drive after and they were not damaged in any way. I actually do work with floppy drives often and have never killed a disk doing that. Although I usually use copies I don’t care about.
