| 3½" (inch)
Floppy Disc Drive |
Works well except that Windows seems
to like to Check out what's there, even when it hasn't been asked to
(?) |
|
| Floppy Disc Drive: Maxell LS
120 (MB) / External |
Uses Printer's Parallel Port - has an adapter so that both
remain connected;
Do NOT use the LS120 & Printer (or Scanner?)
at the same time! |
The LS120 also handles the Standard 3½, 1.4 MB Discs.
Comes with DoubleZip Compression
for Creating BackUps, up to 240 MB per Disc,
slightly Higher Compression than the Standard Windows
Backup Program.
Rob (brother) tried to Install the Drive Internally -
unfortunately the Power Connector that the LS120 used was a '4 by
1' rectangular plug whereas the Computer's is a '2 by 2' square
plugs. |

Second Birthday MAR 01 (fingers still crossed! :-) |

| Fujitsu / 4.3 GB Hard Disc Drive |
Crashed completely within the first year (Click Here for
more). Replaced with a New Drive (see above). |

| ROM (Read - Only Memory) Drive: Creative Labs PC
- DVD Encore Drx2 |
Each Disc's can Store up to 17 GB's
of Information. Can also read CD ROM's.
Had some Screen Configuration Problems which I never managed to
sort out.
A Newer Version of the DVD Software was Installed with
the Second Hard Drive. |
No Problems with the newer Version as yet - 'Remote Control'
Layout a little different.
Apparently it can Operate Several ROM Drives & select
one as a Default. Although it will be some time before I can Test
this out (see below).
I had to Disable the New Disc Detector, Version 1.51,
as it kept going into Setup Mode & trying to Run Install every
time a Disc was put into the Drive, even if the Program was already
Installed. |
| MPEG 2 (Motion Picture Experts Group) Decoder
Card |
Came with DVD Drive (see above). |
Decoder Board comes with Built - In Dolby (Ac - 3) Surround
Sound.
Only needs a 5 - Speaker Connection Box to Work. |
