Oh, and I'm still missing a data cable for the floppy drive. When I found out that I could replace the card reader with a card reader/ floppy combo (which I had lying around as one does) I had to do it

@Nine I can't not manage cables 😄 when I was fiddling with it to get it to work well I had to stop myself from cleaning up the cables all the time
