How has PARNET worked for you?
« on: November 10, 2005, 01:51:44 AM »
Hi guys. Due to [color=ff0000]leirbag28[/color][/i][/u] offering me his old A3000, I'm going to have [color=008000]2[/color][/b][/u] Amiga's at the same time, which I've never had before. Sold A1000 to buy A500, sold that to buy A2000, sold that to buy A1200, etc. Looking around the internet, I've seen some pages talking about Parnet and having one amiga slaved to the other. I was wondering, if any of you have used it, or something better, what you would recomend? Would this help me get around my 1200 IDE problems? :-o

Hi,
    What IDE problems are you having?  I haven'y used ParNET/ParNFS in years myself.  I just remember it worked well for me when I had to use it.  It's worth a look!

If you attach a HD, a most horrible high pitch squeal comes out of the motherboard.

The consensus of the techs around was that the IDE interface was fried. :flame:

Thanks for all the advice everyone. I wish I would have found this site years ago. I could have saved myself quite a bit of agravation.

In the early days, I had the old GEnie BBS, Southern Maine Amiga Users Group, and the Store in Rockland Maine to turn to for help. Now, it's you guys.

My recent "adventures" with my 1200 would probably make a decent story, although I don't see any posts to tell your hair-pulling stories.  :shocked:
