hello, I just had a AT-20 installed by Micah in my mac and think it is great. I am having a small problem with it though, thought I would throw it out on the net to see what other think of it. I have a full Mac+, with external 800k drive. When the external drive is connected, 99% of the time it will not boot anything, you get the startup 'bong', then a small click, no memtest screen, then 'bong', click every 1-2 seconds. If I take the external floppy off, then 95% of the time it will bong, do memtest come up ok, but sometimes, will hang in memtest or more likely rebot (Bong/click) during memtest. Only once has it done this after the desktop is on the screen. Think it is power???? or the marginal power supply in the MAC??? What are the solutions??? I have told Micah about it. Yes, I drove up to Micah and had them install the disk, so it is ok. Yes, the external disk works fine on another mac... Phil Hunt ucbvax!calma!sivax!phil
