Hi,
I have recently added an RX02 to my 11/23+ system, and was trying to make an
XXDP bootable floppy, but havae had no success. I can write files to the
drive, and read them back, but can't boot.
The process I used (in UPDAT) was:
ZERO DY0:
CREATE DY0:
then copy all *.sys files, plus UPDAT and HELP to the disk ( I have a TU58
image with these files on that will boot fine, using the TU58 emulator). I
tried copying the files with both FILE and PIP, but when I use either the
UPDAT BOOT command, or key in a bootstrap, the proceesor halts at address
000016 (I think this indicates a trap on halt).
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong..........
Thanks
Jim.

Hi,
while repairing some 11/73's at work yesterday, I ended up with two gaulty
KDJ11 processor cards, one has not TX data from the SLU, and the other
doesn't talk to the rear panel 7-segment displays.
The company policy is to replace the CPU, and scrap the u/s unit. I suspect
the faults are fairly trivial, and am looking for a circuit diagram of the
KDJ11 so that I can have a go at repairing them. Can anyone point me to an
online source?
Thanks
Jim.

Hello all,
I have two "true-blue" IBM ATs, both the early motherboard revision.
I have the following questions:
- Is it possible to use an IDE hard drive instead of MFM? I have
tried several different drive/controller combos, and nothing works so
far :-( . The drives are small ( < 100 MB), so it's not a geometry
issue (at least, I don't think so :-) )
- Is anyone running an early rev. AT with an IDE drive? How did you do it? :-)
- I Google'd a bit, and someone mentioned not only upgraded disk-based
setup programs, but also upgrade BIOSes for the AT. Does anyone have
an upgraded setup disk or BIOS that they'd be willing to copy for me?
Thanks all!
Rich B.
Hi Chris,
well, from The Netherlands to other countries *inside* Europe
the Dutch Postal Service accepts packages upto 30 kilo, and then the
max shipping costs are 39 Euro.
*Outside* Europe the max weight is only 20 kilo, and economy shipping
is 53 Euro, and priority shipping is 108 Euro.
100 Euro is approx 130 US$, so asking $300 is a rip off I would say!

Can anyone tell me the best way to have something shipped from say
England or the Netherlands (or Germany). Or even Brazil/Argentina. Or
even Australia. I know it's not ever going to be cheap, but when you
calculate 20 or so pounds from S.America - $300+, I figure there must be
a better way.
For those of you who already don't know it, FedEx usually beats UPS by
a mile at domestic postage. Perhaps half in alot of cases. But they
don't cover as many areas as it seems UPS does.
I need a SCSI card for my Sun 3/180. Is there anyone that can help me?
I've got a few $$ I could spend towards it, but I'm not willing to pay
insane amounts of cash. ;)

Folks,
I was contacted by a person who has a Sphere 1 kit
computer from 1976, and wants to know more about it.
It was his fathers, who has passed away.
Feel free to post or send me any info you might have
and I'll pass it on to him.
Thanks-
Steve.

just pulled it out of a 4/470gx, Pat
If someone in the bay area is interested in making an offer
on the rest of the machine, send me email.
This guy says his Apple II clone value is an "estimate of $8,000"... But
he's doing us a favor by offering it for $750...
LOL

I've got a couple small boxes for cache RAM chips that have been pulled
>from old 486 motherboards. If you want them, it'll cost you a measly sum
of $15.00 (US), to cover time, materials & shipping costs.
Here's the list of what I've got:
Qty: Mfg. part number (first line on chip only)
3 Winbond? W2465AK-15
1 GL? GLT725608-15T
11 ISSI IS61C512-15N
8 UMC UM61512AK-15
8 UMC UM61M256K-15
8 UMC UM61256CK-20
26 UMC UM61256CK-15
65 total chips. I can give you more info off of the chips if you like.
I also have 2 Dallas DS1642-070 Timekeeping RAM chips. I got them as
samples, intending on sticking them in a SparcStation 1+ I had. I've
since given up on that box. These 2 were never stuck in any computer.
