Hi!
I have the legendary IBM PS/2 55SX that i see here on the forum is very common, wonder why ?
I have the most common problem with my ibm... The errors 161 163 and offcourse the red cross and the book.
The problem is that the error keeps showing up even if i cleaned the ibm (even the psu!) and cleaned the floppy disk reader laser. I have the reference disk in but it wont boot. The Harddrive is working and the floppy is trying to read (it sounds). I even tried hitching a floppy drive from another computer to the ibm... But no luck ??! Its just trying to read and makes 2 beeps.
So what is the problem ?
Heres a video:
Hitching floppy drive (yes this floppy is fully working in the acer):
P.S Yes, i even changed the Dallas to a new one!
