    Broken system - boot from floppy

    Used norton, it found bad sector, clicked repair and it just showed up the same error next time I did a scan. Was using NUM Emergency Disk. Thinking of taking another approach, let me know if it would work. Could I make a copy of the disk tools floppy (which sees my HDD and the docs I want)...

    Broken system - boot from floppy

    Sorry I did word that badly. There is a 80mb hard drive in it and it was working fine but now there's a system error somewhere in the system files and I'm afraid to try a repair as I might loose all the documents that are on it. But when I boot from a floppy I can get at all the information on...

    System software and Dark Castle

    Hi again, I've got myself a copy (on my windows computer) of Dark Castle and System6 install disks I want to put on my mac, my question is how do I do it? RawWrite fails at 99% with the system6 image.

    Classic II, no boot

    Ok so turned her off there before I went out and about. After turning it back on and no joy, so left it on and came back 20 mins later and it was on. Sounds like caps to me, anyone else think that it supports it?

    Classic II, no boot

    Classic II, no boot

    Hi all, been reading through here for a few hours but I can't find any mention of the problem I have. I got a Classic II from a mate to fix and got it set up and it brought back so many memories I went out and got my own Classic II. But this Classic II got yesterday just doesn't want to boot...
