- I have a small problem that I'm hoping someone here can assist me with.
-
- I seem to have found myself in posession of rather a lot of Bournoullii
- 20 meg 5.25inch drives. Iomega wants to pretend they never even made the
- things, and I can't get them to work right with my amiga.
-
- When I go to detect the drive using HDToolBox, it fails miserably. Anyone
- know the drive specs?
-
- Also, when I go to format them, the format window pops up for a
- microsecond and then goes away. However, the drive continues to click
- like it's formatting for thirty minutes or so.
-
- A verify data command shows (!) no errors on the disk.
-
- But when I partition and reboot, does the partition mount? Noooo...
-
- I'm getting very frustrated.
-
- Another source of great frustration is the search for HP 540C drivers for
- my ami. I don't think the stupid things actually exist. Does anyone know
- of a place where I could find them?
-
- THat's what i thought. :)
-
- Long live commodore.
-
- One more question, and then I will be out of your way.
-
- Does anyone have or know where I could find a used 68030 or 68040
- accelerater card for my A2000?
