- using a REAL SCSI controller (like the Allways IN-2000 or even that Adaptec
- stuff) with your choice of "pure" sound card.

- > I am interested what the difference is between these double/triple/quad
- >spin CD ROM drives? What does it mean that it is a double speed drive.
-
- A standard CD-ROM spins the disc at a constant linear velocity of appx. 1.2
- meters per second, yielding a data transfer rate of appx. 153 kbytes/sec.
- A double-speed CD-ROM spins the disc twice as fast, yielding twice the DTR.
- A triple-spin does 3 times as fast for 3 times the DTR.
-
- Et Cetera.
-
- >Does it mean that it is twice and fast in all areas of data transfer or what?
-
- No - Average Access time is NOT related to DTR to any real degree, though the
- higher DTR drives tend to be newer designs with faster Average Access times.
- There ARE a few Double-Spin drives that have a SLOWER Average Access time than
- the fastest of the Single-Spin drives.

-
- Microcosm Is a game in which you are miniaturized and enter a human body
- to perform different tasks to save it.
-
- Critical Path is a color Quicktime for WIndows game in which you help Kat
- defeat a crazy warlord. Definitely the best Quicktime in Color I've seen.

- As you can see there not 600+ Megabytes nor are there 4000 files.

- DATED later than 1993, however there are also many DATED later than 93 but are
- in fact originally dated many years earlier (they are not updates). The dates
- have been altered. I saw many files where the Archive date and time +files
- date/time + fileID.diz etc were all EXACTLY the same time and date.
- I suspect that they are having problems finding 600+ megabytes of NEW files

- I have more than a lifetime supply of 5 1/4 inch disk boxes, both cardboard and

-
- I recall reading about the early days of audio CDs: the disks were stored in a
- wide variety of ways, all different, no two the same size. Early reviewers
- were very vocal about wanting a uniform size container, and about how much
- easier the jewel box was to handle. Plus the retail dealers wanted some shelf
- uniformity. So the jewel box became _the_ standard for audio CDs.
-
- But in the computer field, I guess it's the outer cardboard box that fits on a
- bookshelf that's the standard for the retailer -- never mind what's inside --
- books, disks, CDs, objects, etc. Which means the retailers aren't going to
- sqwak about the "innards" of the product.
-
- Of course, I've never been one to keep the entire cardboard box; I don't have
- enough room on the bookshelves in my work area. So I fillet them, keeping the
- diskettes in storage designed for them, and the manuals on my bookshelf. Which
- is how I come to wonder what to do about the CDroms: the "naked" ones need some
- protection from the chaos of my desk.
-
- > But, jewel case packaging is not necessarily a given as there are
- > many other methods being tried and tested.
-
- I'm waiting for one of them to become proven. Maybe the CD-ROM industry has to
- relive the early days of the audio CD industry. Or maybe someone will come up
- with a great CD-ROM storage device and get rich solving the problem. :-)

-
- how about an amicable solution ?
- the nodes in europe carry your commercial stuff and you don't get bothered by
- the gaming hints (or how about a contribution to bring the GAMING echos to
- europe ;-) ).
-
- keep ads to the 10 lines limit and just hit DEL if a gaming hint comes on your

- I just checked again today and my box was empty. I am getting very impatient

- only concern is how much longer I will have to wait. It is not fair for me to

- To aid in determining what went wrong, please answer this echo and include the

- pasted ( CD-ROMs ) all over the box, instead of classifying it as ( Computer
- Media ) then it was probably stolen. Customs likes detailed descriptions, but
- so do pilferers.
-
- My intent is not to implicate anyone as to what happened between origin and
- destination, but please understand my side of this situation.
-
- By the way, that ( Return Receipt ) for $1.00 that the post office sells would

-
- To answer your question, yes, they are different formats. Back about 10 years
- or so, a meeting was held to discuss the format of CD-ROMS, and they came up
- with a logical file structure referred to as High Sierra or ISO 9660 which is
- used to produce CD-ROMS so that different ROM players could read the data on
- the disc.
-
- When data is pre-mastered it is organized (for lack of a better word) in
- either the High Sierra format for PC's or the HFS format for the Macs. Many
- publishers will produce different discs which can be read by each platform;
- however, many ROMS today are produced such that both information is on the
- single disc. Thus, the Macs only see and read that structure it recognizes
- and the PCs only see and read that information it needs.
-
- Hope that helps and hope it made sense.

- Yeah, currently there is no standard packaging per say for CD-ROMs because
- depending on what kind of information the disc contains, it may be packaged
- in many different ways. The Sega games for example are packaged in some of
- the larger type jewel cases that will allow the manual or whatever printed
- material is needed to fit in that case. Also, a lot of discs come with books
- that are CD-ROM related. In my experience, the disc has always had some sort
- of plastic sleeve in which to keep the disc.
-
- At the moment, I don't know of any "standard" packaging style. And I am like
- you when it comes to the boxes. I don't keep them either. My discs are just
- stacked up on top of each other, kinda like the way I used to keep the 45 rpm
- records. I don't worry too much about damaging the discs because they are
- protected pretty good with the polycarbonate coating that is applied to the
- disc after production. But then again, I don't have a lot of ROMS to worry
- about.
-
- Hope you are able to resolve you dilema.

- I'm not quite sure what it is you want other than a master. We do the entire
- process from taking the tape or raw data, make a master,etc. and then we
- actually, press, print, and package the discs.
-
- If your question is that you want only a master and no production, I'm not
- quite sure if the plant will do that. I will follow up on it and get in touch
- with you or have someone else give you a call. If the mastering and pressing
- of the discs is something you want, then yes, we are in the business. It is
- JVC Disc America. We have a sales office in California and New York. You may
- give me a call if you would like at (205) 554-5528 CST and I will try and
- answer your question.

- I read you posting how your CD-ROM drive was not reading the Hobbes OS/2 disk.
- When I first put the disk in my NEC 83 drive I would get a CRC error. But all
- my other disks worked just fine. The disk worked on other drives as well. I
- took the drive to NEC and they fixed it. I was able to get a DIR of the disk.
- But if I tryed to copy info to the HD I would get the error. I again took it to
- NEC and they fixed it again, and finaly it works. From time to time it gets
- errors and if I HIT the drive and try again it works. My guess is when they

- THE INCINERATOR To cool the wire use water? The second

- you go under the bridge? You find a waif with which you exchange an item?
- Here at the river you will fill your flask, did you do this? The water in
- the flask you use to cool the wire in the incinerator drawer.
- THE RATS On your first trip to town after you arrive at
- bridge, did you pickup a box at the hardware store? You will need this!
- After you have cooled the wire and taken it, you use it on the lock of the
- green building (next to Moodock's). Here you find the rats. Use the box?
- hope the hints are useful and help you in the adventure.
- All the best from JIM

- Assuming you'll be travelling the I-95 hellway, you should not miss the
- second largest tourist trap east of the Mississippi(*). It was conceived
- in some slack master's pinhead many years ago as an attraction with no
- connectivity to the surrounding culture, history, temperment, or religion.
- I am, of course, talking of South of the Border. An oasis of excess just
- south of the North Carolina border with South Carolina.
- The theme: Mexico! (of course!)
-
- There is a huge neon cartoon Mexican standing outside the place, and his
- ghastly visage adorns billboards for ten miles in either direction. As an
- added bonus, the billboards are all written in Speedy Gonzalez pidgin
- English. Truly amazing, but nothing compared to the greed-mongering
- inside the place. Every tacky trinket you can imagine is for sale, as
- well as many you couldn't possibly imagine, even with chemical help.
- If tacky tourist ambushes thrill you as much as they do me, you won't
- want to miss it. The name again: South of the Border, I-95, just
- south of the border between North & South Carolina.

-
- On Friday's edition of "Computer Chronicles" they had a very
- short review of a CDROM called "Movie Select". They said that it
- can predict which movies you will like based on what movies you
- have liked in the past.
-
- How much does this CDROM cost? How easy is it to use? How well
- does its prediction ability work? How many movies can you tell
- it you really liked and have it base its recommendations on? Can
- you save a file of all the movies you liked to HD for later use?
- Will it allow multiple users to save their preferences?
-
- I know that it will recommend movies. Can you ask it if you are
- likely to enjoy a specific movie. Does it have artificial
- intelligence features that allow it to learn from its mistakes?
- Have I asked too many questions? Thank you in advance for all
- replies.

- Legend of the Red Dragon seems to be ok now, however, when I die in land of

- status bar on my screen... at that point it acts like it 's back at main, but
- never draws anything and when I try to use hotkeys it just beeps! What's up?

- P.S. I Love Legend of the Red Dragon !

- Read: [N/A] Private: No
-
- My immediate solution was to buy three empty jewel cases at CompUSA for $2.99.
- I know there are mail order places selling them for as low as 50 cents.
-
- I also ran into an interesting device at a local record store. It's about 2
- inches tall, black plastic, and has twelve plastic arms inside that swing up
- and emulate the locking hub in the center of the jewel case. The net effect is
- something that fits in the hand and holds a dozen CD/CD-ROMs with the same
- security as the jewel case. There was also a
- two-of-these-side-by-side-in-one-outer-case version that hold 24 CDs. Cost was
- about 8.99 for the 12'er and 13.99 for the 24'er.
-
- There was a rack at CompUSA that holds jewel cases by the hinge side, so you
- can open the jewel case and remove/replace the CD without taking the jewel case
- out of the rack. Much bulkier, but good for CDs that have manuals or other
- documentation that fits in the jewel case.
-
- I'd be reluctant to stack up the disks. I always kept my 45s in their paper
- sleeves. A friend of mine in college kept his in stacks, and they always
- seemed to suffer a little bit in the click, pop, and scratch department.

- MN> solve the microscope puzzle.
- MN>

- MN> propose, I listen to you...... HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP, please !
- MN>
- MN> Best regards
- MN>
- MN> Mathieu
- MN>
- Hi Mathieu, if you still need the solution, here we go:
-
- First of all you don't need to solve the puzzle to move through the game
- or finish it. If you were to read the book in the library for hints, the
- third time it would be solved for you.
-
- Anyway heres the best I can do for you:
-
- OBJECTIVE: you control the blue cells. Stauf controls the green ones. The
- objective is to capture the majority of the territory and wipe out as many
- green cells as you can.
-
- MOVES: Cells can split in two in any direction. They can also jump over a spa
- but they do not duplicate when they do. If a cells comes in contact with any
- cell of another color, that cell will change to match the color of the one
- that moved.
-
- NOTE: There is no one strategy to beat this game. It is not a puzzle but
- based on the game SPOT, if you ever played that.
-
- Also, Stauf will not move into an area of two empty spaces surrounded by other
- cells. This is obvious because then you could move into the remaining space
- and grab all those cells! Perhaps there's a stategy that makes use of this.
-
- GOOD LUCK, RICH
-

- I don't mean disc's like Night Owl's, but disc's with only the absolute latest

-
- It should come out about 1-2 times each month.
- The idea with this type of disc should be to fill the gap between

- The cost should not be more than a normal CD-ROM.

-
- Well ... They're going to be less tolerant of scratches than audio CDs. (Audio
- CDs use error concealment, i.e., guessing, when the error correction is
- exhausted, and you can't do that successfully with binary data.) Of the audio
- CDs I borrow from the local library, about 1 in 20 has a gross defect, like
- skipping or an entire track being mute. So I feel it is necessary to treat
- CDROMs as well as I treat my audio CDs, and not "downgrade" my kindness to the
- levels of less careful library patrons.

- The only problem is that one cannot see the printed label on the CD itself; I

- I've been having big troubles with my CD-Rom and my SoundBlaster Pro.
- With softwares running under DOS everything is OK, but under Windows
- it's a tragedy. With softwares in CD there's no problem but i can't
- hear musical CD's. Everytime the Windows send me a message like :
-
- "CD-Player (or MPlayer) CAUSED A GENERAL PROTECTION FAULT IN MODULE
- MMSYSTEM.DLL AT 0005:3A6D" or,
-
- "UNEABLE TO PLAY SOUND. THE SOUNDBLASTER IS IN USE BY ANOTHER
- APLICATION" and there's no other aplication using the SoundBlaster.
-
- I'm using the Windows with 386Enh and i look all the interrupts, DMA
- channels, etc. and didn't find any conflict with other hardwares.
-
- I need a big help from you. My CD-Rom is a Panasonic CR-562-B.
-
- Thank's a lot and forgive my english, ok?

-
- There's basically three brands that are widely available.
-
- Pioneer has several drives in the six and eighteen disc class, from 1x
- to 4x speed. They range from about $650 to about $2000 in street price.
-
- NLM (something like that, a German company) has a 100-disc unit (two
- 50-disc hinge-out towers, one on each side) and a drive that rides up
- and down between them. It's around $10K I think (very round numbers).
-
- There's also a Swiss company that has a rotating carousel-type unit in
- the 250-300 disc class and that supports up to four-six drives all
- active at once. I think that one is like $25K or something like that...
- it's quite expensive.
-
- MK>Requirements: At least double speed, SCSI, 600 to 680 Meg CD's.
- MK>Maybe anybody can also tell me about prices and where to by them.
-
- If you're willing to wait a little bit, Sony is working on a unit which
- will probably be based on their 100-disc audio changer (the audio
- version sells for less than $1000 in the USA, so hopefully they won't
- get TOO greedy for the CD-ROM version).
-
- After that, I've spoken with reps from several other companies (HP and
- Iomega, among them) in hopes of getting them interested in jumping into
- the market too. (HP already makes a line of more expensive optical disc
- jukeboxes). And an IOMEGA unit could support both CD-ROMs and Bernoulli
- cartridges (offering both read-only and read-write storage)... the sizes
- of the cartridges (presuming CD-ROM caddies) are almost exactly the
- same.
-
- I think you can count on things getting rather wild and wooly over the
- next few years... the current rather sadly uncompetitive state of
- affairs in this area will NOT continue. :-)

-
- And the fact that somebody halfway around the world wants to sell their

-
- What's neat about the Panasonic controller cards I've seen is that you
- can put 4 drives per card, and up to something like eight cards (!) in a
- single PC (so you'll hit DOS number-of-drives limits before you hit the
- limit of the CD-ROM subsystems). Since it needs neither IRQs nor DMA

- It's not DOS 5.0, it's any version of DOS using a drive which needs the

- cylinders, 16 heads, 63 sectors per track, and 512 bytes per sector.
-
- How do you get around it? Don't use the System BIOS support to run your

- it, or use a software solution (such as Ontrack System's Disk Manager).

- mb>I am looking for a CDROM that has extensive geographic data
- mb>about the
- mb>People's Republic of China.
- mb>
- mb>Ideally I would like
- mb> a) Geographic names in Chinese
- mb> b) Geographic names in Pinyin romanization
- mb> c) Detail down to the county level
- mb>
- mb>Has anyone come across anything like this?
- mb>___
-
- To the best of my knowledge, nothing like this is currently available. I did
- read of a startup joint venture that is going to have such detailed information
- available (detail down to the county level). I know that neither of the two
- main players (MapInfo and Autocad) have this sort of capacity for China.
-
- MapInfo does offer it's ADC Worldmap (available for its windows version only).
- This is a four disk set which covers the world ($2,995). The Souther Asia
- (which I am guessing includes China) disk costs $995. It includes 17 layers of
- data (roads, bridges, population, etc. Information is also provided on data
- quality information (date, source, scale).
-
- Remember, that in addition to the above cost, you need the MapInfo basic
- software ($1,300).
-
- Hope this points you in the right direction.

- collection of 6 reference works, The American Heritage Dictionary, Roget's
- Electronic Thesaurus, Concise Columbia Encyclopedia and World Almanac,
- Bartlett's Familiar Quotations and Concise Columbia Quotations..
- The '93 is MPC (for Windows), and contains 7 reference works, including all the
- above (newer verions?) and also the Hammond World Atlas..
- Let me know if you're still interested in the '91 version.. $18.00 shipped!

- Hey Rainer,
- An alternative to jewel cases or tyvex 5.25in disc sleeves are some very
- unique plastic envelopes developed specifically for CD's that do NOT scratch
- the CD! These envelopes have a fiber material that protects the disc face and
- is non-abrasive. My company ships all of the CD's we produce in these
- envelopes. They are super compact and extremely light weight. They come in
- seven colors including clear and will hold one disc and one or two inserts
- depending on which version you buy.
-
- Generally they are:
- $0.75 -- 25 pack
- $0.55 -- 50 pack
- $0.45 -- 100 pack
-
- add $1.00 shipping per 25. If you would like a few of these beasts give me a
- call at 1-800-234-7344.

- With a !6 bit card here are the resolutions that you should be looking for:
-
- 320 X 200 128K
- 640 X 480 614K
- 800 X 600 960K
- 1024 X 768 1572K
- 1280 X 1024 2621K
-
- All figures are approximate. 1MB = 1024K
-
-
- Then pick the highests resolution that your monitor can handle look for a card
- based on that fact.Next you will have to determine what type of applications
- you will use most. Window, DOS or a combination of the two. If you are a
- windows fanatic then choose an accelerator card. If you want both then try a
- card that is based on the S# chip ( Like the Diamond Stealth).
-
- You also can consider what tyoe of RAM you want with your card VRAM or DRAM.
- VRAM (Video) is more expensive but is dual ported and can write to the screen
- while reading in more information from the memory. DRAM can't but many
- manufacturers use buffering to achieve almost the same results as VRAM. This
- means that VRAM is slightly faster when the card is pushed to the limits but is
- probably not worth the extra dollars (about $100).
-
- Hope that helps.
-
- Keep in touch.

- Hello Andrew!
-
- AW> SH> other BBS specials we are running. Note the prices listed AW>
- SH> on these specials are only valid when you let us know that you AW>
- SH> saw our products advertised on a BBS or Fidonet echo!
-
- AW> Thanks for what you've done!
-
- Thank you, and all the other FidoNet users for joining The Profit Group
- Andrew.
-
- AW> BTW, do you have any catalogue or just product list, I hope you could
- AW> give me that, so that I and my friends can have more ideas of what to
- AW> buy!
- AW> Thanks in advance!!
-
- We do offer a catalog of our products, but basically, everything we
- have in stock is advertised here in the echoes. It's pretty easy for
- us to do since we only carry 27 titles.
-
- If I can be of further service Andrew, drop me a reply.

- CK> SH> FORBIDDEN SUBJECTS - (The Original with Gross Graphics) - $39.00!
- CK>... Seems that there are alot of people out here (including
- CK>myself) that would like to know what the 'gross graphics'
- CK>are.
-
- He he! Well, to put them all in a nutshell, the pics range from
- individuals involved in accidents, torture and crime victims,
- amputations, decapitations and other photographs in the same vein.
- If one was to look for a common thread to these, I guess I would
- have to say "shocking", or that they all are shock provoking.
-
- Not suggested that any of these pics are viewed either before or
- after meal time.

- Hello Wesley!
-
- WKM>Scott, just a thought I'd like to pass on....Is it possible to make the Meg
- WKM>BBS program check the CD Rom that is in the Rom Dirve and if it is Not Repo
- WKM>to the Online user...CD Rom Offline?
-
- Hmmm, I'm guessing that you are referring to the MegaDoor program....
- Let me get with our development staff and see what they say about this.
-
- WKM>Also how about making it so it can tell
- WKM>what CD Rom is in the drive and Accessing the appropriate BBSFILES.LST for
- WKM>that CD?
-
- Good idea, I'll pass this along as well.
-
- WKM>Any Plans to make Mega BBS compatible with CD Rom's other then
- WKM>Profit Press? I think it's alot better then Brainex, but is limited!
-
- I don't think so. Our intention in providing MegaDoor on the CD's
- is to provide a product that is full circle. It's a good door
- program that you don't have to register in order to receive full
- functionality (Same story with MegaFile, the files.bbs generator).
- For us to develop a separate product that would interface with
- All the available shareware CD's on the market would shift our
- objective of providing the highest quality CD-ROM's at the best
- price available. Who knows though, we are very flexible and have
- already developed a few commercial CD-ROM drive BenchMark and Test
- programs.....

-
- The Linux Quarterly CDROM contains everything you need to start using Linux
- on your PC. The operating system must be installed to either a raw non-DOS
- partition, or it can also be installed to a regular DOS partition, assuming
- you have enough space. Installing to a DOS partition is a convenient, albei
- not completely optimum means of doing this. You lose some speed, though not
- much, while you gain convenience (not having to create another partition.)
-
- This version will not run directly from the CDROM. The next version of the
- CDROM will do this. This, also, is not ideal. Very few drives are capable
- of reading and seeking the drive fast enough for acceptable operations.
- The NEC 3x appears to be a good choice for this type of operations.
-
- Kind regards,

- We sell the Public (software) Library -- PsL CD-of-the-Month... out of
- the nearly 2000 CDs we sell, it is the *only* one that offers what
- you're looking for. This monthly CD contains usually 800-900 programs
- for DOS and Windows in all categories, i.e. Applications, Utilities,
- Games, etc., etc., all received within 30 days of going to CD. The
- programs will automatically install from either DOS or Windows. It also
- comes with screenshots of a number of the programs to give you a
- look-see before you install them. The PsL News Magazine is included in
- electronic format, which provides you with info on every program
- contained. It's kind of the Shareware Industry's "Bible".
-
- Additionally, PsL includes a different "theme" each month from their
- existing library. January and July features Games; February & August -
- Business; March & September - Home; April & October - Utilities; May &
- November - Words, Sounds and Graphics; June & December - Programming. So
- you get anywhere from 1000 - 3000 theme-related programs in addition to
- the latest software! As I mentioned... there's nothing else like it.
-
- You can try out any month's issue for $30.00 Canadian + $3.50 S/H. We
- also offer a monthly subscription (cancellable anytime) for only $25.00
- Canadian + $3.50 S/H anywhere in North America. We automatically bill
- your Credit Card monthly when we ship. (I just noticed your
- tagline says Sweden... insured 1st class Air Mail to Sweden is about
- $6.00 Canadian.)
-
- If you're looking for quality, current, non-crippled shareware, without
- duplications, and no BBS ads, or other "junk" then PsL is the one!
-
- Give me a call at: (905) 830-1615 or Fax: (905) 830-4254.

- stuff delivered that went right through without any charge at all! So, if
- you're not importing for commercial purposes use the good old government run
- postal service and save a few bucks <grin>.

-
- Your sound blaster card plugs into an AT type slot (16 bit)
-
- The SB has a CD-ROM data cable connector (about 40 pins) near the front edge
- of the card. This carries the CD players video images and audio that is
- associated with a game or multimedia product. NOTE: according to the
- instructions that came with my SB, this connector only works with the
- Matsushita CR-521 CD player.
-
- There is also a CD-IN connector (4 pins) that is meant to attach to your CD
- player if you want to route audio CD's from the music store through your
- SB. This is closer to the back of the card (the edge with the connectors
- that stick out the back of your computer) near the top (farthest from the
- AT bus pins that stick into your computer).
-
- The "getting started" booklet that should have come with your SB has
- pictures to help you with this, as well as some info about setting
- Interrupt jumpers (IRQ's) and DMA jumpers. Fortunately, the factory
- standard settings worked ok for me.
-
- Good Luck, and write again if you still have problems.

- No. The idea behind modem deals for sysops is that when a sysop uses a

- took off bigtime when there were competing 9600+ standards and no clear winner.
- There would be no advantage to a company giving discounts to sysops on hard

- RA=> how do sysops with 540mb or 1.2 gig hard drives compensate for this?
-
- Whatever that number is (depending on your definition of a megabyte), it
- is the IDE interface that gives that limitation. Special drivers (like the one
- with the WD Caviar 540) can give you more if your drive has the capacity.
- People with 1.2 gig HDs probably have SCSI drives and interfaces.

- don't want to just send it to them since they probably won't accept it
- without a RMA#.
-
- Has anyone had to have one of these drives fixed? What did you do to get
- them to honor the waranty? Do you have a number of someone I can call at
- Panasonic who will actually take some action?
-
- I will never buy another Panasonic product again and will tell anyone I
- know not to either. I'm going to make a bulletin for my BBS so all my
- callers will know what type of service this company provides.

-
- I'm looking for the BBS number of NEC Technologies, so I can d/l a update to
- my CD-ROM driver(s). Here's my tale of woe:
- I picked up this unit from Tiger Software (motto: delay shipping as long as
- possible) and installed it in my Gateway 386/25. It seems to do okay as long
- as I leave the drive empty when booting up...otherwise, it spins up, the BUSY
- light goes on, and the whole system hangs. The SCSI board I got to go with it
- is an 8-bit NEC model (the chip in it is labeled FUTIRE DOMAIN), with a 25-pin
- female RS-232 connection. I think that the driver that I'm using is a bit
- dated, as the manual states that, on boot, it should identify the device and
- logical unit (it does), then list the adapter number, base address, memory
- address, and IRQ. There's a way to set the memory address & IRQ, but no switch
- that I can locate to set the base address.
- Also, the documentation claimed that the card wanted IRQ5, so I provided it,
- and when I run CheckitPRO, the SCSI software (PowerSCSI!) is listed for it, but
- the SCSI board isn't shown as taking the IRQ.
- All in all, it's a nice unit, but I'd like the software to allow me a little
- more flexibility.
-
- Thanks to all,

- will get the address and phone number and post it tomorrow. Their CD
- prices have just lowered from 69.00 a piece to 20.00 dollars a piece for
- most. You can rent them for a test drive and they are honest folks to
- work with. The data is not all inclusive as most geneological
- information is not. Try a couple first before you buy is my
- recommendation.

- They have Marriage Records, Social Security Death Benefit, Land
- Records, Birth and Death Records, Pedigree & Histories, Census Index
- Records. They also have a new CD out called a Master Index which will
- show if an ancestors name is on any of their CD's. New CD's are on the

- were 69.00 I was a bit cautious in purchases but for 20.00 for most disk
- I can get some that I wanted but could not justify. It does take a
- while to get use to using them and running searches. I am preparing a
- copy of my PAF file to send to them for inclusion on a new family

- You should start by getting the correct interface for your Mitsumi

- Your SBPro can act as an interface board for Matsushita CR-521, 562, and
- 563 drives. All others are no go. This drive is also often referred to

- With Myst it doesn't matter what order you do things in for the most part. You
- don't have to do the ages in any particular order or anything. To get out of
- the age you're in, you have to empty the water from the lighthouse (by useing
- the thing that looks like an umbrella stand) go into the lighthouse, down the
- steps on your left. You close the valce on the chest after emptying the water
- and go to the top again, fill the lighthouse with water, open the chest with
- the key when the chest floats to the top, get the other key and open the second
- lock, turn on the lighthouse by turning the wheel, go down either of the sets
- of stairs but only halfway. At this point, you will find a secret passage in
- the wall. The stairs should be lit by this point. Go into the secret passage,
- and you'll find a big thing that looks like a star. Press the button located
- by the right lower red star and a light will come on. Return to the surface
- and empty the water from the room within the boat. Go down and you'll find the
- myst book that returns you to the original age. Bring either of the pages with
- you and put them in the approprate books in the library. You'll have to get
- both of them eventually. I just passed the game myself and I thought it was
- great. I'm looking forward to the sequel.
- Happy mysting!

-
- I have a Matsushita CD-ROM drive which came pre-installed on my Packard
- Bell MPC. I primarily use it for listening to music in the background
- while I work, and I need to know...
- If I want to play a CD single in the drive (unlikelyu, but might happen)
- will I need a CD-single adaptor or will they play without error?
-
- Thanks,
- Kdt, appearing on an echonet near you

- Well, you could always buy from a Canadian dealer next time. At
- least then you know up front what it will cost, even if it is higher
- than the US prices <smile>.
-
- BTW, I do carry some of the Profit Press line.

- Can someone tell me if I can just add a CD-ROM into my system, or should I
- get a full Multimedia Upgrade Kit?
-
- I currently have a 386DX-40mhz with 4 meg of RAM, 250 meg HD, 14.4 modem,
- and the original Sound-Blaster card. I have been told that I can just put a
- CD-ROM in here (with it's own controller) and it will work fine. But I have
- also been told that if I do that I won't be able to play audio CD's and
- listen to them through the sound card (like when in Windows and working on
- something having the CD playing in the background), and I have been told
- that the sound won't always work correctly (depending on who I talk to).
- Now I like the sound I get from my Sound-Blaster and I know a SB-Pro or SB16
- would sound even better, but I can't quite financially afford to add them
- both at this m
