Mike, Unfortunately, I can't answer most of your questions. I've never tried hooking the syquest up to a real live DOS box. All of the ones at work don't have SCSI. CrossPC is a software PC emulation package available from Consultron but is not included with the CrossDos package licensed by Commodore. I did use FDISK but it was done with CrossPC. Although my CrossPc formatted cartridges may work on a real PC, Consultron indicates that PC's are more finicky than CrossPC about the drives. For the type of transferring you have in mind, Consultron recommends formatting the disk on the target PC. Cross Dos can recognize these cartridges and you should have no problem transferring files and taking them to the PC. -Richard
