Hello all, I am pleased to be a new member of your forum, actually a re-born 68K member (was a member years back, got lost, and now here I am again). and I hope that I can get a hand with a problem.
I had 2 SE30's which I upgraded and got running w/ 80megs each and 10 baseT prior to storing them a few years back (4 or 5). Now when I crank them up I get horizontal lines on both of them!
I pulled the memory back to 32 megs and removed the Comm Card on one of them and reset the via progam switch and I got a clear screen but no drive.
I booted disc tools Floppy and Got the screen up and it is stable but then when I go to re-format the drive it fails to write and fails to mount after re-format.
I have tried 3 hard drives, two I know had Sys7.1 on them and neither was recognised and neither could be succesfully re-formatted and mounted.
I have removed the battery to re-set pram, I have tried different 'tool kit' floppys, I have tried external hard drives with physical terminators, and I still can not get a hard drive to mount.
I will try all new memory sticks next but I could sure use a fresh idea or two.
Thanks for any thoughts.
