We just received a Panasonic Business Partner
model FX-600. Where can we get a manual to
show us how to run it?

I just acquired an AT&T 3B2/1000-60. It worked for a couple
of days, but the hard drive slowly went bad, and I began
to get constant I/O errors, and now the hard drive is
completely dead. I found a replacement 347MB SCSI hard disk
and have a copy of UNIX System V 4.1 on backup tape, but
I have no bootdisk to format and partition the new hard disk.
I have read about a system disk called "devtools" or "idtools"
which contains these utilities. Is anyone who has this
disk willing to send me a copy of it on 5.1/4"? I would
gladly pay the postage if neccessary. I'd love to get this
machine running again, it is a nifty computer.
Thanks in advance!

I also purchased a 500 MB harddrive to connect in conjunction with my current drive; but, again, am not sure how to do this.

ATTENTION obsolete computer collectors and computer museum
curators. There is an IBM Minicomputer for sale in Seattle
Washington. The asking price is $25. The computer works
but has no terminals with it. It will be trashed if no one
saves it. I am not the seller,... but I will be glad to
give you the seller's e-mail address if you are interested.
I would take it myself for my own museum but I cannot afford
to pick it up or pay for shipping (I live in PA, USA).
Thank you,... and happy retrocomputing! :)

I am very surprised that no mention has been made of the 1976 Processor Technology SOL computer that I purchased as a kit together with 20 lbs of instructions and a bunch of chips
The monitor was a converted 12 inch TV and the printer a 1947 ex newspaper news machine.
If anyone shared my enjoyment out of building this machine I would like to communicate.
From 1976 8080 to 1997 MMX gives me seven machines which I still have.

Hi,

Although I use a computer almost every day at school, I've
never owned one, and don't know much about their inner workings.
I decided that I'd buy something really primitive to learn
on, and just have some fun with.
So, I just bought my first computer system at a local
computer swap meet. It's an IBM-clone with an 8088 chip
and 512K of RAM. It was new in the original box, and was
built without any disk drives. The guy I bought it from
threw in a CGA monitor, a driver card for up to four floppy
drives, and a driver for the CGA monitor. I then bought
two 3.5" drives at the same swap meet. When I got it home,
I managed to get it working (physically), but haven't been
able to get pat the RAM test.

Can anyone please help me get this thing going? I know I need
a bootup disk, and I'd like to add a harddrive eventually.
Also, I need DOS. Where can one get obsolete computer
software and hardware for old PC's?


Thanks,

Dave Forsyth

I have an IBM PS2 with 6mb of memory. On it I'm running
Win3.1, Paradox, Powerpoint and lots of games for my kids.

standard memory chips or peripherals like a fax-modem will
fit in the slots. What is the upgrade capability of my
machine and how do I go about it? What else do I need to
know about it?

Leading Technology 6500sx 386sx computer manual, motherboard
jumper settings, etc. Also, how to get into setup, has ami bios

Working with a 386sx with math co-processor and
Paradise pvga plus 16, that i happen to have no drivers for.
With certain ega resolutions and vga resolutions and for
example the shareware ega vtrek (wimpy star trek game), the
video looks like it tilts 180 deg out of sync and I have
diagonal across screen and my controls do no good.
The PVGA PLUS 16 is a full 1meg ISA card. My monitor is a
MGC 13in 1992 with SVGA VGA led's by the power button.
The next hell is that checking with Paradisemmp.com I found
out that my card was manufactured by a oem manufacturer with
paradise and western digital chips. I would like very much to
see spec's on my card and monitor which I haven't found
on the net. I have not a clue about the jumper switches on
this card and have found no support.

I am k\looking for the pin out for a IBM PC Jr. Keyboard cable or the cable it self.

TO MICHAEL BYRUM AT PCTECH@HICHORY.NET
IO-IRQ CONFLICT...INTERRUPT REQUEST LINES, are physical hardware connections over whichperipherales send request for service to the CPU.An I/O PORT is aconnector on the PC in which you plug a cable from
another device and through which information flows between two unit. (CHECK) In the Resources Dialog Box, check the Conflicting Devices list to see if the modem is using resources that conflict wither devices.
If so, left-click CHANGE SETTINGS and choose a configuration that does not have resource conflicts. Dont use a modem on on COM3 if their is a serial mouse or other device on COM1. The COM1 and COM3 ( and COM2 and COM4)
ports usually use the same IRQ and cant be used simultaneously on most computers. If possable, change the COM3 and COM4 ports to an IRQ setting that is not in conflict. Also, some display adapters have address conflicts with COM$ ports. To avoide
this conflict, use another COM port or replace your graphics adspters....RICK

There is, reportedly, a Colossus at an American university. This machine was developed in Britain during WW II to assist in the German code breaking work conducted at Bletchley Park. Anyone know which university? Thanks!

I own an Amstrad PC9486 and recently have been having problems with the PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports on the motherboard. I have come to the conclusion that the board needs to be replaced. However I am having great difficulty trying to get in touch with Amstrad or anyone else, for that matter, who could supply me with a replacement motherboard. The motherboard is an LPX form factor which takes a single ISA riser card for expansion. Do you or anyone else know whether I could obtain a replacement motherboard from Amstrad (and if so how?) or another supplier. It seems such a shame to have to trash the machine seeing as it performs my duties perfectly and everything else on the computer still works fine.

i have a magnavox 386 pc and would like info on how to upgrade,

We purchased a very old working computer called a Zeus 2001
with an electrahome monitor. This computer came working
a Mitac B drive. At this point I am unable to use it,
and would love any information out there to try programming it
Presently, all I am able to access in a the function modes.
But don;t have a clue what they are capable of.
Thanks for any input!

Received 3 replies to question re: stackers. One person used stackers on 386 - no problem. His 486- another story. 2nd person used stackers, but prefers 4 mgs simms instead of stackers, mainly because of cost. 3rd person advised against stackers. As a compromise, I will try one stacker and see what happens. Will keep this site posted as to results.

Does anyone have software for an ICL Microline 294 printer by OKI, I want to use it under Windows 95

I bought a old IBM 286 computer for a starter for my daughter.
I got the thing to boot but it says I have to run setup.

GAVILAN LAPTOP. ANY IDEAS ON LOCATING A POWER SOURCE? APPARENTLY IT CAN RUN ON BATTERIES BUT REQUIRES 2A-17V. I'M DESPERATE TO GET THIS THING RUNNING. UNFORTUNATELY, I KNOW VERY LITTLE ABOUT COMPUTERS EXCEPT THAT I'M FASCINATED BY THIS 1983 LAPTOP.

Help!! I don't know what I have. The device is labeled as a "mobile computer-patents applied for" and was made by the Gavilan Computer Corp. It contains four 32K RAM capsules which were copywrited in 1983. On the back, a label says "Display Control Unit Airshow 100." It weighs nine lbs. and requires 2A-17V power. It has a 3"x5" disk drive and a place for a telephone line. ANY INFO???

I am looking for a apple IIe disc drive. I have alot of games and my computer is still good.

For James (10/22), here are 2 resources regarding IBM model 5140 Convertible (laptop). (1)Fantasy Productions (800-358-5887) sells the IBM Manuals for the earlier (discontinued) IBM computers. (2)PC Parts Inc. 888-426-8258 (888-IBM-VALU) has some parts for 5140s. For T Stafford (10/23) regarding software for the C64: DYNACOMP has some (temporarily!). 716-346-9788 Voice/Fax or toll-free ORDER line 24 hrs 800-828-6772. They're clearing-out all their software for Atari 400/800/XE/XL, TRS-80, Commodore 64 in special 10-packs for a low price. Don't know how much is left at this point. NOTE: Their "250 page" catalog which costs $3.50 has software for older computers (mostly IBMs & Apples, also CP/M) has a heavy emphasis on software for ENGINEERING!

Does anyone (who lives in the UK) have an old compaq
portable working or not working. The type that I'm after
is the sort that has the CRT built into it. I will pay
shipping and a small price.(prefer it to be free!)
I also need the manuals and system disks for this computer.

I am working on a Packard Bell Agoura P 75 MHZ. When booting up I am getting this error "IO Device IRQ Conflict". Packard Bell Will Not support this computer and I need to now what device is conflicting. I have removed everything exept the video card from the system. Now if I go into the system setup (bios) and reset the system to default it will run through with out prompting you to pree "f1" or "f2", but if you reboot the IO error will pop back up. I had to replace the hard drive and disable the sound card. If you need anyother information or have any questions please feel free to e-mail me.

Thank you for your time'

Have American Megatrend 386DX, 40mhz w/210 hard drive.
Originally had (4) 1 mg 30 pin 70ns simms in 4 slots.
Computer had 4 more slots which I filled with (4) more
1 mg simms. Total 8 mgs RAM. Want to use 2 stackers to put
(4) 1 mg simms apiece into 2 slots, and fill remaining 6
slots with a 4mg simm each. Total of 32 mg RAM.
QUERY: Use of stackers OK? Would I need to upgrade to a 486
or 586 CPU with motherboard? Without motherboard? If I
get a new motherboard, do they come with 72 pin slots? If so,
is use of 30 pin to 72 pin converters found to be effective?
Computer store said customers didn't like them. Does anyone
have some experience using them? Conclusions?

Hi! I have a DEC PC 450st, which is an EISA-based server running
an Intel 486-50 processor. BIOS is Phoenix v1.00.11. It has
2-2Mb 72-pin parity SIMM's in the first two slots. Two other
slots are open. I've tried 8Mb parity SIMM's (IBM and OKI) but
the system refuses to see anything but the existing 4Mb. I can't
modify the memory setting in BIOS, nor does it boot if I just
put in the 8Mb SIMM's. Any suggestions? I am trying some
folks at DEC, but any help is appreciated.

I have a Globalyst 250 Laptop with, I believe, a Crystal
Semiconductor sound card. Does anyone know if there is a

works fine. The company refered me to Crystal and they don't
seem to have a driver posted (that I can find) on their site.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

I will pay reasonable price and shipping for these items.

Has anyone successfully used a Kermit on the ABC-26
Microcomputer manufactured by Ai Electronics Corp (Japan).
The beast runs CP/M ver 2.2(ABC-26 9A). I have been to the
Kermit distribution Web Site at Columbia Univ. but although
they list many Kermits produced by M. Freeman for a variety
of CP/M computers a Kermit specifically for the "ABC-26"
is NOT listed. Maybe one of the Kermits listed for CP/M
ver 2.2 will work o.k .. but which one?!

RE: Sun 3, I mistyped my e-mail addresses. It should have been davewach@wizvax.net. Sorry.

I have a friend who has a professional and very complete Sun 3 system. Includes plotters, Ethernet, SCSI cabling, hubs, a large plotter, 1/4 in tape drives, terminals and hard disks (boot hard drive is crashed. System was working fine Feb. 97, before the crash). Software includes high end (for the time) CAD/CAE software, UNIX and more. We are looking to sell the complete system or can part it out. If there is serious interest, we can come up with an inventory. Licenses for the software (upgradable I presume) alone make the system desirable. Serious inquires/offers only please! I would fool with it myself but I donÆt have the time or the space. Any interest, suggestions?

I NEED THE PHONE NUMBER TO V-TECH, I NEED TO PURCHASE STORAGE FLOPPY DISKETTE AND ALSO UN-LIMITED STORAGE RAM FOR THE I Q COMPUTER I BOUGHT SOME YEARS AGO. THE PHONE NUMBER LISTED IN THE MANUAL IS NO LONGER USABLE.

You might want to look into acquiring a Digital Group System.
It came out a year or two after the IMSAI. It was pretty neat
for it's day. It had a seperate buses for I/O (configurable
bit width), memory, and processor. At the time, it could run
either a 6502, 6800, 8080, or Z-80. Unfortunately, I tossed
my system 10 years ago, tho' I could probably scrounge up
the power supply (Xentec, a San Marcos, CA-based company
made 'em). I have no idea how many were made, and I don't
remember where, but I do remember that a Dr. Robert Suding
had some hand in it's development (they named the cassette
tape storage format after him). Maybe that's enuf info for
you to hunt one down, maybe not. In any case, good luck!

Have a Timex Sinclair 1000 computer with 16K Ram module,still in the original packing. Curious about comments and value

I have found a very old Zenith laptop model ZFL-181-93.
It has two floppy drives and I suspect no hard drive. Is anyone
familiar with this type of machine? I welcome any information
regarding possible processors in this thing, what type of
OS it can handle, pretty much anything.
Thanks!

I recently got hold of an NEC PowerMate Portable SX (a 16MHz 386 'luggable'). It had no boot floppies and only has the most minimal DOS 3.30 installation.
I was hoping to install a newer version of DOS, but when booting from a floppy, it no longer recognizes the C: drive.

If anyone can either explain why that is so, or get hold of the original install disks, I'd appreciate it.

I have a CompuAdd 425sl and would like to upgrade my memory. It currently has 1MX9 30 pin 60 ns SIMMS. It appears that I can increase my memory to a total of 16M, however there are only eight slots. Is there a way I can use 4X9 SIMMS?

I also have a TANDY computer. Is it updatable and is it worth updating?

I had an old IBM PS-1 which I passed on to a family member a few years ago when I upgraded to a new machine. Does anyone know if those ild machines can be upgraded and if you can add a modem?

Looking for operating disk for MAC 512K.

I like to obtain more information about the TRS-80 pocket

don't know the corresponding Shart model number.
Thank you.

A friend and I found a Tandy 1000 rotting in a shed behind
our house. We brought it in and lo and behold, it works!!
We would like to fix it up into a powerful mainframe

Really though, we just need to update it and hopefully run
Windows3.1 or something similar on it. Right now it just
has DOS 3.2. Does anyone have any help or suggestions?!?!
Thank you.

I was given an old Packard Bell Force 341 CD which has a P60 processer. It died after an electical storm.
Obviously, from the looks of the Modem board, it was hit through the phone line. I have a hunch that it might be a com port
or something that is also fried on the motherboard. But I need to know how to disable the serial ports. Does anyone have any
information? Any experience with this kind of thing?
Thanks

Can anyone tell me where I might locate the battery on a Leading Edge 486dx-33 Computer?
Need to replace this as the CMOS keeps losing its' information. I have looked in the owner
manuals, but can find nothing. Took off the case cover, but, I can't seem to figure out
where or even what this battery might look like? Appreciate any advice. Thank-you.

Does anyone have any idea what an IBM PS2 Model 50 system is worth? It's complete with 4 MB, 20 MB HD, and an IBM monitor. Please email me if you know.

I have an old Compuadd 286-16. It boots OK to the hard drive but I can't access either floppy. The setup info is correct, there is power to the drives, the controllers and daisy chain cables are OK and I know the drives work by substituting them to other computers. On the boot, a message appears that the extended CMOS checksum failed and when I go into setup, extended CMOS is disabled and I can't enable it. Any ideas on the solution to this problem? Is it a corrupted CMOS chip? I essentially have a "locked-in" computer. I can't get files in or out of it. Thanks.

I am trying to find out what's wrong with an IBM PS/2 Model 70 386DX-20
computer failing it's POST routine. The codes returned, 161 and 163,
are apparently "CMOS power failure" and "Clock date error" which seem to
indicate that the battery is bad. The battery, however, is outputting
its rated voltage (6V) both off the board and on. This is a Duracell XL
lithium battery, model DL223A, but the battery holder says it requires
(which I doubt) a proprietary IBM part no. 72X8498. The BIOS is an IBM
33F4906 (what the paper sticker over the chip says) and is made by
Toshiba (an EEPROM?) p/n TC5710010-200. Anyway, the memory check
proceeds without problem, ad does the keyboard check. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

To George Kozykowski re: power supply for Zenith 286 laptop. Try phoning PC Parts, Inc. 1-888-IBM-VALU (1-888-426-8258). The power brick I got with the Zenith 8088 Supersport laptop that I bought from them seems to be one manufactured by IBM, which a label stuck on it that says "modified for use with Zenith SuperSport laptops -- Output = 15VDC". And I know they have a certain amount of parts/old-Supersports there, from which they can furnish parts.

Anyway, regarding the chances of obtaining manuals for theseZenith Supersport laptops (both 8088 and 286),I offer my experiences of a couple weeks ago, goingthrough Zenith's phone maze. ("For Technical Assistance, press 1,then press 3", etc.)I'd found from another source that the manual for the 8088Supersport laptop, which I'm told "includes schematics, signals,etc.", has the title "Super Sport Portable Computer User TechnicalManual", and it's published by Zenith. My several calls toZenith's phone #s netted the info that that manual's part #is 595-4906, but it's NOT currently available for purchase fromZenith. The earliest manual that's still available is for somemachine based on the 486 processor.And the Zenith Data Systems phone # is 1-800-582-0524, in caseyou want to verify that you can't get them!

This info is for Richard Charnes 10/10, and Buda 10/11, as wellas anyone else who requires help with their Zenith Supersportlaptops (both 286 & 8088). (There seem to be SEVERAL postings lately.)The following info was sent to me by Jay Tomlinson on 10/1. He wrote: I found a file at a Zenith WEB site that worked for setting up the comm ports and resolved my problem. If you're interested, I found this file at http://support.zds.com/support/software/index.aspI haven't checked out this info myself. (My problems with my8088 Zenith Supersport laptop aren't urgent.) But I suspect thisweb site may have several files to handle several problems, notjust comm ports.If you find this info useful, you might send an email of thanx toJay Tomlinson. ------> Jay.Tomlinson@GSC.GTE.Com <------

Hello again (I love this helpline). More problems with one of my NEC v20s:
I had to reformat the HD, thanx to a little accident (have I ever mentioned my disdain for ANSI?). I reloaded DOS 5, and it won't boot to the C: drive. It will boot fine from a system disk in the A: drive, and then I can switch to the C: drive and even nest command.com from the command line. It just won't boot directly to the C: drive. Any ideas?

Does Anyone have upgrade solutions for a compudyne 386sl laptop

Anyone know where to get a COMPUADD (425TFX) NOTEBOOK
repaired.

Re: John Adams requests about his "new" Kaypro.

The Computer Journal has articles on upgrading systems like
John's on a regular basis. I believe that it was the Dr. S-100
column that said (a while ago) that a Kaypro II could be
upgraded to 4 MHz, 256K+ RAM, up to 4 floppy drives, and
2 hard drives, all in the original system case.

The US number is 800-424-8825. The address is:
TCJ, P.O. Box 535, Lincoln, CA, 95648.

To all who have been looking for systems disks for your 512k Macs. I found some one who has what you, and I have needed. SUN Marketing P.O.box 4059 Logan, UTAH 84323. For $15.00 plus shipping, you get 1 (One) systems disk. For $42.90 you get the sys.disk, and Word Processing disk, with some other stuff I am told. Have not sent for my set yet so don't know exactly what to expect. Hope this helps any, and all. And thanks to all of you who tried to help me with my little PROBLEMS (HaHa) THANKS, and good nite !!

Re: CMOS Setup

There are many requests for a program that does this. There
is a generic one that may work at ftp://pc.irtech.com/treehous/o/max/File/hardware/GSETUP.ZIP.

Re: IBM PC/XT battery

The PC and XT have no battery or battery-backed RAM.
Configuration is done with DIP switches on the motherboard -
there should be references available on the Web.

Re: IBM Portable PC serial ports

The Portable didn't have serial ports as standard. If they have been added on an interface card, they are most likely industry standard (8250 UART, RS-232C), so maybe there aren't any there. A good program for checking just what's in a machine is Infoplus - http://www.cdrom.com/pub/simtelnet/msdos/sysinfo/ifp1p158.zip.

Hi, I have 'volunteered' to help get a few old systems working for the Spastic Society of Victoria and I hope someone can help me.

I have before me on the desk a Philips P3348 (20 MHz 386) and a ICL DRS M80 (20 MHz 386) that are both sadly in need of a 3.5inch FDD and a IDE HDD. But...both have proprietry boards and no manuals...

I can get the HDD to work on the Philips, but it refuses to speak to the FDD. Both these interfaces are on the MotherBoard.

For the ICL, I can get the FDD to work, but cannot get it to see a HDD. The interfaces for both are on a card - the problem being the card is has connectors for the original MFM harddrive that blew up. The card obviously has a few things on it besides the drive controllers because without it in the computer refuses to do anything beyond start-up. Somebody has suggested I may be able to fiddle around with IRQ settings etc to allow another card with an IDE interface to be in at the same time. Yeah right...a screwdriver I can handle but IRQs?! It also asks for the Setup disk, which (of course!) I don't have.

I would like to get both these working - they have anough memory to run Windows and would be perfectly adequate for use in some of the residential houses for basic Wordprocessing etc.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help or who could direct me to someone who may be able to (or who can even lend me a manual for a brief time).

I have a Compaq Plus, about the size of a small suitcase, its a

Reply to T.Ammon bounced back with a 'Host unknown'.
That's why I reply to the list.

What kind of laptop are you using ? Is it an Intel machine ?
Does it have a serial port ? If so, then you can use a
'standard' serial mouse with a 'standard' mousedriver, like
MOUSE.COM from Microosoft.

Another reply to T.Ammon came back as well: User unknown.
I can supply you (and others) with a couple of generic
setup utilities, which enable you to change BIOS settings
of older AT's, 386's and the like.

Is there a way to send files to this list (attached) ?
