Greetings all....
I have once again encountered problems with my STe. It seems that my
internal drive has decided that it doesn' want to work any more...
It ucks, caue I dont have a harddrive, so I cant even boot up... Is
there some known problem with the drives in the STe? It spins up on
powerup, and when the boot process tries to read the drive it makes a
buzzing sound and cant access it... Thi really sucks, since I opened
the machine to put in memory.... Argghhh!

I know it is rude to post a followup to your own article, but I found
out what the problem was. It seems that my internal drive was bad
when I bought the machine, but worked. It got progressively worse, to
a state where it was no longer usable. Well it was also the reason
some of my disk's were getting trashed. I went back to my Local
Dealer(I know, I am Lucky!) and he replaced the drive for me free of
charge, even though I opened the machine to put in my Ram!
Coolness...
John
