I don't have "PC Exchange". If the SE30 can't read a PC FAT formatted disk with the Iomega driver I'm still in a pinch. Making a HFS disk on a PC doesn't help either if I can't cop…

Hi guys, Today I managed to win an auction for a Commodore Amiga 2000 from a local seller. The seller was great (and may be a source of more vintage gear in the future!), but not…

You need to set the new DVD drive as "slave", which basically involves bridging a pin on the DVD drive's data/power connector to force this. It is currently set to cable select wh…

Wow, nice conquests!

A guy selling UNIX gear at a computer show I went to in March told me about a recycler in the area, and I finally made it over there last week. There were a number of interesting t…

I had a friend who had the same system and a similar problem - namely that no matter what version of OS 9.2x he tried from various torrents, it wouldn't boot up off the CD. After…

I bought a USB diskette unit and copied the Omega driver onto a PC format diskette usning a modern computer. I will see (next week) if the SE30 can read it and install it from that…
