Atari Heavy Maintenance


Patrick

I have just ten 5.25" disks for the 1050 which came with the computer 
and drive. They are labelled simply 1 to 10 and I have tried to get them 
working. They simply list a whole range of games but no actual DOS or 
programs. With all computers I need disk file management tools so I can 
copy software and back things up. I do have other boxes of software for 
the Atari but they relate to the ST and Falcon.

Thanks for the link. 8 bit isn't somewhere I spend that much time but it 
certainly is challenging. The 1010 that I have has the two buttons on 
the far right broken. I have purchased another drive with a motor issue 
but am hopeful of swapping out the buttons. Fingers crossed. All else 
fails I will have buy a working unit. I have a search logged on Ebay for 
1050 in the hope of getting the DOS disk at some time. Keeps me busy.

All the best
