I'm having some problems that I hope you'll be able to solve for me. I bought a Game Doctor SF7 a couple of weeks ago. It boots fine but it always says "INSERT DISK PLEASE" when I try to back up a game. I have tried with several different games and bought brand new floppy disks. I also have an older SF7 unit that I bought about 2 years ago. That one stopped working about a year ago (the disk drive started to make a loud buzzing noise when plugging in the power cord, and it didn't boot after that). Before that, it worked very fine and I backed up a lot of games with it. So I bought a brand new disk drive for it yesterday, and now it starts up and boots fine, but the same message with "INSERT DISK PLEASE" shows up EVERYTIME I try to back up any game there as well. I have tried switching the disk drives back and forth between the two units several times just to make sure... And sometimes it says "SRAM ERROR 1", but that seems to happen when the connectors don't fully connect. Any ideas why this happens all the time? I have tried for more than a week now and can't seem to get it right. Thanks in advance!
Thanks for your reply! I bought a new floppy drive yesterday, and it lights up when I choose Backup Card or Load Game or whatever I choose, but it always says "Insert Disk Please" no matter which of my two units I switch it to. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong here... I use brand new floppy disks with it of course. Anyway, I have now connected the SF7 to a PC with a serial cable, and it now says "Linking.." when I start it up. I've downloaded the TSF3 program which I guess is the correct program to use with it. I have no clue however on how to use that program since there is no read me file for it... Could anyone with knowledge about TSF3 please guide me what I should do now to get this *darn* thing to work? I've struggled with this for two weeks now, and I'm unfortunately no computer ace, so please forgive my noobie questions Edit: It's BIOS version 7.11
