- SoftPC users:
-
- I am trying to use a floppy drive on a IBM PS/2 70 from my DEC 5000/200 running
- SoftPC (this is known as SlavePC). I have made a serial cable as specified on
- page F-4 of DEC SoftPC User's guide. After connecting the machines together
- and starting SoftPC, the program seems to hang after I attach 'drive A'. Has
- anyone else experienced this problem? Do I need more pins in my serial cable
- then what is decribed in User's guide. Any help would be appreciated.
- Thanks.
