Schwertfeger) Organization: UNLV Computer Science and Electrical Engineering Lines: 8 I just got an AdIDE 40, and when hooked up, my amiga won't boot at all. I get a brief flash from the power led, and nothing else. I've measured the voltages, and the CPU is still getting the +5 that it needs. The funny part is, if I disconnect the cable to the drive, but leave the Controlelr under the CPU, the machine boots just fine. Anyone seen a problem like this? I just got it Friday, and having to wait a whole weekend for tech support is *KILLING* me. I got a great deal on a Maxtor 7080AT HD, Which is 80 Meg, "Less than 19 ms", and has a 32K cache. I want my performance, and I want it *NOW*!! :-) -- Eric J. Schwertfeger, maniac@jimi.cs.unlv.edu
