Have you tried connecting a       POST card to it?       The Tandy 1000s have non-standard floppy connectors so if you don't have an       original drive you'll need to mod a cable or cut some pins on the floppy drive       to avoid shorting the power pins to ground.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
