Menu works but I can't load images

Post by netbeui »

Hi everyone, I received my Gotek floppy emulator yesterday and installed it in my Atari 520 STfm. I initially got a high pitch squeal when I turned the computer on and then realized that the floppy cable was attached incorrectly. After flipping it around I got it almost working. It takes me to a menu where I can scroll through the files on the USB drive. And when I press F7 it inserts the floppy image into drive a: and reboots the computer. I see the Gotek display switch from 000 to 001 and I hear the buzzer beep but eventually it brings me to the desktop and if I try to open the a: drive I get the a: drive not responding error.

I've tried multiple floppy ADF images and I've updated the firmware but still no luck. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Noob alert! I was loading the wrong floppy image file types. I tried .ST files and it's working perfectly now :D
