problems with GRM — ZXNet «real.speccy»

From Sergey Orlov To All 11 August 1999

Greets to you, All !

Here is a computer GRM 128. It has a specific, innate, so to speak, glitch,
it does not write to disks formatted on another computer (the zero track crashes).
Later another glitch was added, it began to crash all disks at the first attempt
to write to them. A way to get rid of the first glitch was given in some issue of
On-Line, but that scheme did not work for me. Help, who knows how to get rid of
these two glitches, I guarantee a lot of beer (for non-residents - pickup :))))).

p.s. 2 Ilya Abrosimov: do you also have GRM?

It crashes “normal” disks.

It can’t be. It was according to that scheme that everything was redone.
Maybe your TM2 in this scheme is defective and does not switch?

Sincerely, Alexey

This happened before. Now all the disks are crashing. Both relatives and non-relatives.

Look in Spectrofons for a diagram of modifying the VG turbo until it works correctly when
recording. The circuits from Kiril Gromov (Chung from FFC) are fully working. Kiril
loves beer. :-)

I had something similar a few years ago. There were problems with some kind of mikrukha, like RT...

Did you receive soap about me? Have you tried cleaning the heads on the drive? :).
