I formatted the a floppy as a 1.44 MB FAT disk Click to expand... I don't believe you will be able to use a FAT formatted floppy as a boot disk. It must be formatted HFS.

Actually, got 3 copies of the manuals. Also was given a bunch o books on it, and just a ton of goodies! Click to expand... How fortunate for you. Make sure to read the manuals…

You can also patch Drive Setup, which is better than HD SC Setup, IMO. It's not very hard to do.

Thanks JRL. The only difference I encountered with those instructions is as follows: 1. Wen I de-compress the Network Access archive using StuffIt Expander (per your original inst…

Just got one yesterday for free! Drove 45 minutes to get it. I got 6 boxes of disks with it, a bunch of software, 2 drives, and all the manuals with it. Actually, got 3 copies o…

While I am awaiting Phreakout's OS disk set, I recently got my PC back up and running Windows XP. Since I can now read and write floppy disks, I checked out JLW's detailed post reg…

Okay. I've got a Power Macintosh 7500 (see signature) with a 68-pin Ultra 160 SCSI LVD/SE Adaptec controller card. The model number of the card is AHA-2940U2B. It says on a labe…

I would look for Office 2004, and not any earlier version, mainly as MS has a free utility that allows you to read docx etc. files in it. That alone, apart from numerous interface …

Thanks. I may be able to snag an upgrade disk for that. Should update from a Word 98 product, I would think...?!?
