I recently bought a IIc+ from a very reliable source. The first floppy drive was NFG by a bent upper head bracket (I never pulled a disk out of it so I don't know how it got bent). The seller sent me a new floppy drive. It won't boot with that drive so I tried 2 other comparable drives (with the extra motor that ejects the disks) but the same result with all of them. I can boot it with an Apple floppy that does not have that motor and it boots fine. I tried an external 3.5 drive but the same problem.
I checked the power supply and the voltages make no significant drop when booting.
With the "extra motor drives" It boots to the second screen and then freezes. With the non extra motor drive it goes through all the normal boot process and boots normally.
any suggestions?
