Hi there,

I have the Miracle Systems floppy drives and one seems to now be playing up.

I know they are NEC drives (but forgot to note the model no!), does anyone know what spec they are
and are they replaceable with different drives if the NEC is not available?

Thanks
BP.

Many thanks.

Hi Derek,

Many thanks

Hi there,

Interested in this if still available.

I have the folder/manual but no carts...

Thanks.

OK, back to looking at this one.

Recently socketed all of the logic and put in a new 8046 and ZX8302.

Just recapping the board and then I will fire it up and see what is what....

Might socket all of the RAM too and then we are easily replaceable on all the ICs....

When it did work, for a short time! I got this boot screen.

I had to repair the same area! Replaced most of it.

After:

Looking at the 2 rom images, mine on the left and your on the right, the layouts are similar and do
contain the key number written on the label.

Will need to check mine as yours seems to be 8K and mine 16K.......
