Gave up on the old one…and bought a used mate for our industrial dryer. Got it for $240 at the local used appliance place. Picked it up and installed it at lunch. First load went perfect.
At 5pm I ran down to Casenotes in Santa Monica to install a new Hard Drive. Went to HOOTERS first..got my usually ‘buffalo strips hot’..feel better already. They bought a Matrox (Quantum) 40G for 100 bucks. I installed the new drive as the Second IDE Master, And the BIOS wouldnt find the drive..it would just freeze on the screen. Pulled out the drive and put it in the “ALWAYS PERFECT” E-machine in the other room…worked fine. Went the the motherboard manufacturer and downloaded BIOS updates for the first machine…installed…and all worked well. Used MaxBlast to ghost the old 4 GIG to the 40 GIG. Rebooted with the 40…all is good. Got home about 9..watched South Park and BB2 on replay. Hit the Hay.
