Hi All, Newcomer here.
Right now, for the challenge, I am refitting a 630 DOS Compatible. Originally it was fitted with an IBM 500MB hard drive, System 7.1.2, and runs Win 3.11 pretty well; it has 68040 processor on the Mac side and a Cyrix on the PC side; I have maxed out the RAM as well. As I understand that it can run higher versions of operating systems, I imaged the HD on another Mac, then copied the disk image into a 2GB Seagate drive; I put this Seagate into the 630 and it worked as before, and then I proceeded with the software update: I upped the OS to 7.6.1 and it worked well, updating the PC compatibility software to version 1.6.4 worked well too. However, the PC Drive file remained 200MB as previously configured; I can certainly bring it up to the 1023MB maximum size. I double-clicked on the drive file to make a PC drive image (named "PC BOOTDISK"), and copied the files to another drive, unmounted it, then pulled the drive file to trash. Then I created a new drive file, size it as 1023MB, mounted the drive and then copied the content of the original back in. However, I could not switch to PC as it reported that it could not find the drive. Trashing that abd replacing the original drive file works fine again, but of course, stuck at 200MB. Ultimately I would like the idea of having it running something like Win 95 (98 might be impossible I presume), but I would certainly appreciate some help on how to get it fitted out correctly. Thank you very much! Sam. -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
