Hi, guys!! I'm in the process of installing 3.1 on my A3000. I have installed the ROMS chips and put together the computer, and it seems to work OK with the 2.04 workbench on my hard drive, with the expeption of the colors and preferen preferences not being read. The problem is when I try to install the 3.1 workbench. As the instructions say, I attempted to boot off the install floppy, but got a Software Failure shortly into the boot process. The same thing happened when I tried to boot oot off the Workbench 3.1 disk. The power light flashed twice… then guru. Does anybody know a solution to this problem? BTW, I am using copies of the original floppies. It seems odd that the 3000 boots fine with 2.04 WB, but not off the floppy with 3.1…. HELP!!!! —-Dave
