@terriblefire i tbought that might be the case. Ill disable them and see how things go.

I have been using Exxos V7 HD upgrade without any problems. I have even removed it to test the dma and found no difference. I would pull the hd upgrade and install a stock 68000 and retest. The HD upgrade has actually improved floppy reliability due to the 10k pull ups

@Umberto1st that's how I tested the floppy worked. Will pop the pullups onto a wd1772 and try with DD and the TF536

I also did this fix for good measure

Guys, I would park this for the time being. I have no time to investigate at the moment

Appreciate all the help, do what you need to do my friend, like I said I'm supposed to be working on a Falcon

One other thing I have done on the V7 HD upgrade, is I am using a AJAX FDC

That may be why yours works at 1.44mb when mine doesn't as mines a standard 1772

Could be, but I also have a STFM set up for the TF534/536 with a ver 5 HD and a 1772 and it works

Try turning cache off, you can do it in xboot or the general tab in the control panel. I have found that cache turned on can mess with the floppy.
