We have a Diablo 630 printer and would like to find either a tractor feed or a cut sheet feeder for it. We have been quoted several exorbitant prices for one and wonder whether there are any lying around your shops unused that you would be willing to part with for a nominal fee plus shipping. We need one in working order, of course. please email me to the address below. ARTHUR PARIS <AEPARIS@SUVM> SOCIOLOGY DEPT./ SYRACUSE U./SYRACUSE, NY 13244-1230 TEL # 315 443 2346

I have an Epson Equity II (circa 1986) an XT clone with a 20MG hard drive and a 360k floppy drive. Got a sysgen external 3.5 drive for it but am having difficulty installing it. Was told by a Sysgen tech that he *didn't* think it would workwith this Epson model. Are there any confirming experiences or work arounds out there amongst the micro community. If this approach to bigger capacity drives won't work, any alternative suggestions would be appreciated. I am running DOS 3.1, but can move up to 3.3 if necessary. The controller is supposed to recognize 1.2 MG disks drives as well as the 360k ones. ARTHUR PARIS <AEPARIS@SUVM> SOCIOLOGY DEPT./ SYRACUSE U./SYRACUSE, NY 13244-1230 TEL # 315 443 2346

I have an Epson Equity II machine (1986 vintage) - an XT clone at home, with a 5 1/4 in. floppy drive. and a 20MG hard drive. We are moving toward 3.5 in. drives in the office and I would like to add an external 3.5 drive to the Epson at home. Tried a Sysgen drive but had difficulty getting it to work. Sysgen said it would *not* work with that machine and Epson's voice mail refers me to "your local dealer". I've called around but haven't found local vendor who can tell me how to make it work, or can suggest another product or fix. It is not a matter of the DOS. I have access to 3.3 and that doesn't work either. Someone suggested upgrading the BIOS. Am willing to do that if not too difficult, but would need to know how and who to get an upgraded BIOS from. The CPU by the way is a NEC V20 (or V30 chip). Any advisement would be appreciated. ARTHUR PARIS <AEPARIS@SUVM> SOCIOLOGY DEPT./ SYRACUSE U./SYRACUSE, NY 13244-1230 TEL # 315 443 2346
