Vaxstation 4000/60 help please

I've got one of the Vaxstation 4000/60 machines from CPB. It seems a nice box. The monitor is excellent as allways (trinitron). I've got Ovms hobbyist on it now. Problems are : I don't know anything about VMS. VMS boots and all, but it does not recognize my framebuffer and so won't run DecWindows yet. How do I fix that? Of all the drives I've tried, the only one that worked was an old Quantum 210mb. I'd like more flexibility. Any hints on what I need to do to a drive to make it run on this machine? They generally are 'seen', but VMS bombs when I try to install. Even though I've got cdrom drives that are jumperable for 512byte blocks, none worked properly but the original RRD40 which is slower than molasis in February, the only RRD40 we have got, and it requires some wierd cart I don't have. The only way I can change cd's is to disassemble the drive, draw the disk out with hemostats, and slip the replacement in. Basicly, I need a primer on VMS, and someone to corrospond with who knows his/her stuff. Thanks Jeff -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Jeffrey S.
