I just recieved my GVP Impact A500 40q (40 meg quantum drive) and would like to tell all about some problems and/or complaints and/or complements. 1) The dauterboard that contains the sockets for the Fast Ram expansion was loose in the case. (did not know this until I opened the box to see why I could not autoboot - my first thoughts were that they left the board or roms out). 2) there is no documentation for the autoboot/game switch so one must guess about it (problem was hampered by (1). 3) Minor complaint - the fan is much too loud. I am not going to comment about the sudden disappearence of all my drawers unless this repeats itself. (well I just commented :-) ) Although some have complained about GVP's installation scripts I like them as they set up the hard disk the way I wanted it with a minimum of work.
