- HiLo. The printer cable on my friend's 1000 recently went bad (it was
- a cheap hack job from a local amiga dealer), so for christmas, I went out
- and bought him a regular cable with a gender changer on it, figuring that
- would do. Bzzt. Wrong! When he plugged everything in and turned on the
- computer, the computer just hung there...blank (black) screen...didn't even
- get to the kickstart requester.
-
- is it some wire that needs to be cut or jumped in the cable? If so, I can
- perform that operation myself. Please advise. thanks.
