A4000T Yet more questions...

[mdivancic]

I picked up a 4000T from eBay this week and after a great struggle I have OS3.9 BB2 installed along with a IDE CD and hard drive. I've got a couple of questions about getting stuff for this thing.

Where do I get drive rails for the puppy? I need about three more. It would be nice if I could find some of the blanks for the drive bays. Any ideas?

When the unit cold boots from power off it gurus the during the first boot, but after clearing the alert it continues to boot and finishes off just fine. Any warm boots after this are just fine. I believe its a problem with SetPatch.

The unit is stock, with an IDE Hard Drive and IDE CD. 16MB memory, standard CBM floppy (No stupid hot glue cable), ect...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just thought of something else, did the AT 4000T ever ship with an 030 processor?

No, the Escom 4000T never shipped with an 030 card, only 040 and
060.  Not sure about the genuine C= version.  Any idea which
company produced the cases for that machine?

That's what I thought, thank. The case is an Amiga Technologies, which I assume means Escom?  Here's another question? How do I get the lower drive cage in the unit with the 040 installed? It's hitting the processor heat sink right now. I'm guessing I'll have to replace the heat sink, right?

Hey, guys thanks for all the help!

I just cringe to cut anything on the 4000T, but I thought about it myself. Yes, it is the cross brace. Right now I don't have any drives for this anyway. Maybe in the future...
