Hi Does anybody know where I can order the Western Digital WD1772 chip found as part of the floppy logic on the ST motherboard? Local stores I've contacted (nashua and one in MA) don't seem to have it in any of their catalogs. Thanks Chad

You can almost certainly get it from Active electronics in Westboro or Woburn. Out-of-town ordering number (800) A-C-T-I-V-E-6. Westboro (508) 366-8899, Woburn (???) 932-4616. | |||||

Thanks. I'd already called them. The guy I talked to didn't even no about WD until he started nosing around. They don't have any -- no second sourced ones either. I think my best bet is to find someone who repairs Ataris (without sending them all out). Chad | |||||

Best Electronics lists it in the catalog for $18.00
They say they ship within 24 hours of your phone call.
This is the line in the catalog:
IC no. Atari Reference no. Price
-------------- ------------------- -----
1772(ST/XF-551) CO26028 $18.00
UPS COD is $2.20 (catalog says is the fastest way to get it)

For local repair people you might try:
Bob Fitzpatrick dba RF Microtech
4 Carmel Dr
N. Billerica
508-667-8900
Paul Shahood
215 Hudson St
Marlboro
508-481-1851
Paul is no longer doing repairs but he might have the parts
or know where to get them fast.
