If anyone saw my posting about "Amiga 2000 harddisk problems" 1-2 weeks ago please let me know. I got no response. To briefly restate, my Amiga 2000 crashes when I do copies from RAM: to hd0, and from hd0: to RAM:, it takes the disk (hd0) with it when it does (disk invalid, checksum errors, invalid key). The Guru errors vary but 00000003.nnnn & 00000004.nnnnn do seem to up a lot. What I'm wondering is, which hardware addition (or motherboard) causes it. I have an 8MB ASDG memory board (which passes pumemtest), and a 41MB Miniscribe (I've tried two Seagate 251's & am on second controller). My computer is in the shop (Computer Biz), and they are out of stock, on Amiga 2000's. Is there someone from Commodore that KNOWS what to do about this problem? Is it possible to take my 2000 to Commodore and trade it for another (I bought it less than 90 days ago), or is waiting for Computer Biz to get them in stock just as fast? I'm wonder about the people at Computer Biz, what with their "no refund" policy, and they Would Not give me a replacement for my 1084 moniter, which makes a small sound, and flickers in one small spot every so often. Direct responses appreciated, D. Ryan Hawley would be Amiga 2000 user
