Hi: I must make a short report and, of course, request for your able assistance again on two problems I encountered.
Firstly and formostly, I wish to report that the 800K disk drive is fully operational. Pandora's Box is alive and well!!!! I received a complete copy of Mac 6.0.8. I used Utilities disks one and two and, lo and behold, she boots up perfectly!!!!! Thanks to your great information. Now a moment to cheer SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But, of course, there's my two new problems. While trying to create a boot disk (at least that is what I thought I was doing) I inserted the system tools disk as instructed. It created the disk and I let it write over the system tools disk. I don't want to repeat this mistake again. So, logically, it would be wise to go to the Apple website and download the system tools disk for Mac OS 6.0.8. Okay, so which download is the system tools disk of the 4 downloads listed? Is it wise at this point to blank out all the disks and download them in order from the website? Logic would dictate using a Mac to download the files. Well, I have two PowerMac that I have spoken to you all about. I have a PowrMac 7200/90 and a 7500/100. I haven't attempted to resurrect the 7200. It is in pieces and, without a proper cover, I'm concerned about it getting damaged or being an electrical hazard. That leaves the 7500, which is a complete mystery to me. I have a power cord for it now and can hook up the monitor, keyboard and mouse from the 7200 to create a working system. Whether it has an Ethernet card in it or not, I'm not sure. I'm going to find out. I have never surfed the web with a Mac before so I don't even know if it has the software to do it. But I guess I'll find out when I get it together. Knowing that I have an operating Windows PC, I downloaded Tranmac 4.2 for Windows 98SE in the program files. So how do I use it? Does it lauch automatically? What have I done????? What do I do next???? And where do I go next???? David Harris [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
