CompuServe Messages

Bill & Bill (hmmm, just noticed!), Thanks for your thoughts. After sending my messages out, I spoke with both Texel & my PC's tech support. To make a long story short, they both agree that I should have enough power via the power supply. The problem could be (1) the $3.49 Y splitter power cable I purchased from Radio Shack, or (2) the 3024 might have just had a bad day (permanently!?!?). The consensus seems to be with (1). By the way, just as the PC tech said, if I look hard enough, I will find another power supply cable. I'm going to contact HDI about another drive (good thing I took out the EXTENDED warranty! Will keep you posted……. Regarding the games, I shouldn't complain – I have WAY TOO MUCH to do to worry about whether Bruce Lee lives or not!! Again, appreciate your assistance. I'm really excited about this _stuff_, and look forward to having a stable environment to work in <gg>……RRR
