Hi;
Just joined this list and wanted to ask some things about transferring
stuff from an old 2c and / or 2gs forward. The info below answers some
things. Next question. I have stuff on the old 5" disks that I want to
transfer forward to 800k disks (already have both drives) but I cannot
get the machine (2gs) to recognize the 800k drive that is plugged in to
the machine. Strange that it will recognize the 5 1/4 that is connected
to the 800k??????? Help would be much appreciated. Thanks ahead of time.
Don
