Well,
That was fun.
I received Simon the Sorcerer talkie and Microcosm from BouncingAyatollah today. Eagerly I mounted CD0: to have a look on the CD's, and then my Amiga completely froze. After a reset my 4.3gig Quantum Bigfoot wasn't recognised anymore. I thought 'Oh dear, f00ked RDB'. Three hours messing around with OS3.5's and OS3.0's HDToolbox, swapping master/slave jumpers around/trying different HD and CD-ROM combinations I connected the culprit to my PC. I had found a tool on Maxtor's homepage (who own the Quantum name nowadays) which promised indepth scans and tests for HD's.
After booting the Maxtor floppy I let it scan for HD's but it didn't find the HD :-/.
In other words, it's completely dead. As a dodo.
AND OFCOURSE I DON'T HAVE BACKUPS. Grrrrr, byebye keyfiles, emails, stable 3.5 install.
:-x
/me hits himself with a large hammer. After 5 long hours and misery I am now back to a very basic 3.0 install on a very shoddy 1gig Quantum Bigfoot.:cry:
Anyone wanna buy this piece-o-shit miggy? :pissed:
