Looking for someone to transfer my Deskmate text from 5 1/4 Tandy floppy diskettes to CD so I can access the data on my current computer. I live in Colorado...
Hello! My first post. I recently was going through my old floppies and came across a bunch of PNT files that made on my Tandy 1000HX I wanted to view. I...
I'm in the same boat. I've actually got a 360k floppy drive in my desktop PC currently, so in theory it shouldn't be a big deal. I just hesitate to be...
If rourkejo could make a copy of the disk before mailing it, that would prevent potential loss of data in the process. However, this would only work if he has...
Thanks for responses to my question. I don't have any way to make a back up of the disks. I do have the software I used on my Tandy 1000 if that would help....
Assuming you don't have too many disks, I can give it a shot. It should be small enough than I can just email the data back to you. Contact me off-list if...
I promise I haven't forgotten about you...just seem to be having trouble finding time on a half-warm day (when it's light out) to go dig out what I've got. ...
... Wes I notice this CM-11 is advertised as having a "NON-DOA guarantee" so, at least you'd only be out the shipping if it doesn't work. As regards the Boost...
if your in the seattle area, re-pc actually has a vintage section of their southcenter, tukwila store, which is where i get all my older stuff, and all of it...
Go to ebay.com and search for item # 220206733396, then read the 2nd "question" that was asked of the seller towards the bottom of the auction. Anybody here...
$1000 ? An original TRS-80, maybe. If it's a level I in its original box, yes. A model II, same as above, perhaps. A model III : no, plainly, no. The first...
... Must be crazy. I think I paid more for shipping than I did for the T1000SX I currently have. Of course I have a CM-5 and it had no hard drive.... and...
I haven't heard of anything like that, although it does seem that Tandy computers have been selling somewhat more expensively on eBay lately. An 1100FD laptop...
I think somebody made that up or had an interest in raising the sale price... I don't think they are worth anywhere near $1000, but they should certainly be...
I've never really been into collecting things... I'm a writer, the 486 laptop makes a good word processor (I put DeskMate on it). But it's true that most...
Hey Jan, what's happenin'? I need some of your expertise. I can't remember how to format a three point five floppy for seven hundred and twenty kilobytes on...
See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/75131 for format command switches. Looks like what you want is: format x: /f:720 Where x is your external drive's drive...
... Unless you have a special version of FORMAT, I don't think you can do it. DOS 2.11 doesn't support 3.5" drives. Nor networking nor a bunch of other things....
I think it should work, using the command switch Wesley suggested; the HX came with DOS 2.11 and has a built-in 3.5" disk drive, so I don't see why 2.11 ...
Shadow, you're completely right. DOS 2.11 can't. Plan DOS 2.11 can't, that is. Tandy would not have sold a 3.5" drive if you couldn't use it. The HX also came...
On Thu, 13 Mar 2008 00:28:18 +0100, "Jan Vanden Bossche" ... The setup program for the EX & HX is a standalone program. It's in the rom dos, and I don't...
Thanks Jan. I checked the tvDog website for a setup utility and couldn't find one but for only the HX. I need to do a ver just to make sure where I'm at with...
... Either it's a modified 2.11 (duh) or you at least need a druiver or at least DRIVPARM settings in config sys. I recall all too well the fun we had with...
So, I've been restoring my 1000TX. I have it booting off an IDE hard drive using an Acculogic S/IDE 16. It boots the MS-DOS from the tvdog site as being the...
