Hello again...

Did you get any kind of documentation? If not, you are pretty much SOL...

If you got floppies with your controller, DO NOT FORMAT THEM!!! You can use omniflop to make backup images first. Google for omniflop and you will find the download.
Can you post an image of you floppy drive?
And you might want to make backup copies of any part you can read from (eeprom, microcontroller...). I made backups of everything from my 761 system.

One question: do you have to boot VAL from floppy or do you have an eeprom card next to the cpu?

By the way: you can send me a PM if you don't want to post images here.
