Msg 43061 is 14 line(s) on 01/21/90 from WARD CHRISTENSEN to ALL re: EXT PC DRIVE HELP Help! I've put a 1.44M in my AST Premium, and took the old 720K 3.5" diskette up to my PC, to hook externally. Well, durn, the thing doesn't work! I have an external box with power supply, and a 1:1 (meaning "no twists in it") cable from the 37 pin connector on the back. Power is connected up OK, drive addressed so it lights up (had to be DS0), but the drive motor doesn't spin! When I substituted a 5.25" drive, same symptoms: had to be DS0, light lit, but motor didn't spin. Could it be I need a terminator? Even so, that should at worst result in disk errors, not in total failure to spin the motor! I'd appreciate any suggestions. P.S. the cable & box/power supply worked fine for an external tape not too long ago, and BOTH drives came from working systems, (albeit they were internal drives).

Msg 43065 is 04 line(s) on 01/22/90 from JERRY HASLETT to ALL re: XEROX 860 UPDATE The Xerox 860 hardware problem is now solved in that the 8 inch disk is the standard single-sided single-density. However, it is not known how to convert an ASCII file or a WS file into a form that the Xerox 860 software can use. Any ideas out there? Msg 43066 is 08 line(s) on 01/22/90 from ERIC BOHLMAN to JERRY HASLETT re: R/XEROX 860 UPDATE I'm not sure what you mean by "a form that the 860 software can use." An Ascii file is an Ascii file, period. If you're talking about converting an ASCII file into a document format compatible with a particular word processor that runs on the 860, let us know what that program is. If, on the other hand you're asking how to get a file from a, say Kaypro or MS-DOS disk onto an 860 disk, you need to find someone who does media converion. I seem to remember that Roy Lipscomb, who sometimes calls here, can do that; I also remember that he's out of town for about a month. dup. chars. >Function:?{{i >Function:?(U >Function:?{w{^U ?
