I have a Colorado Memory Systems "Jumbo" 1/4 inch tape drive I'd like to use with Esix 3.2D. I loaded the 1/4 inch streaming tape driver, but it wants some information I don't have, such as address and IRQ number. The tapedrive I have connects to a very simple looking interface card, which is in turn connected to my floppy controller. The documentation was totally non- technical, so wasn't any help. If anyone can lend a hand, I'd sure appreciate it. Thanks, Keith Burton

It's probably the Jumbo+ using DC2000 or DC2010 tapes. Unfortunately this unit won't work with Esix using stock drivers. Maybe somebody has one for Esix? There is no IRQ and address, as it uses the same as the floppy controller, that being the reason for a cable from the J10 controller to the floppy controller. I used to have one of those and quickly upgraded to a 60MB Everex Streamer. ...Martin -- ============================================================================== Martin J.
