Well luckily you realy don't have to worry all that much. 
The problem is you are running an old copy of Novirus. The previous version 
Nick Wilson was "2.0" compatible it ran ok under a A3000 using 2.04, however
the code in the roms for A500/A2000 is slightly different kettle of fish. 
which The virus software quickly notices, If you remove "viruses" from memory
you have just trashed portions of memory resident 2.04 code so you can rightly 
expect a guru to visit shortly. On my machine just running Novirus caused the 
machine to hang. The solution is get the latest version of novirus as this 
appears to work just fine. I tried a number of virus checkers and recieved 
varied results. Basicly checking for viruses relies on seeing the machine in
an expected state. 2.04 is not an expected state for any but the latest checkers.

Re hardware bug on 50Mhz 486 chips as i understand it the problem was more
to do with heat dissipation than anything else and lead to the recall of the
first batches. As Intel are shipping them again I presume they have resolved
this. You want to run anything that fast you are going to produce a lot of

i need to implement a simple network linking 2 286 machines and a 8088 machine.
what i want to do is to have the 2 286's running word processing packages, with
a printer connected to the 8088. the 8088 will function solely as a print
server (i.e. - no interactive access required). the links should be via serial
ports, and the system should be transparent to the application (WordPerfect 
V5.1). I believe that there's a package available called "the $25 network" which
will do the job, but i've no idea where to locate it - either here or in the
'states. can anyone help with either:

1)	a source for the $25 network - either in oz or o.s.
2)	alternative suggestions to solve this problem.


thanks in advance.

Are you using Windows?  If you have SMARTDRV.SYS and/or RAMDRIVE.SYS
installed, then the amount of memory available for use by DOS will be
reduced by the amount allocated to these drivers.  Other drivers may
also grab hunks of memory - I seem to remember that TKERNEL.EXE, used
in Borland C++, can also do this.  The mem command will only report 
memory which can be allocated/deallocated by DOS.

Hope this helps...

They are good, but they could have been better. See comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc for

There is a programmer's guide that you can buy. It reportedly has some
deficiencies. See c.s.i.p.m (somewhere in the last month) for a good
set of programmer's notes.

The card comes with various software including:
   - A simple speech recognition program (obviously you need a microphone);
   - An electronic organ program.
Also, there is a MIDI interface, so you can work seriously with all your
MIDI gear.

BTW, the SB Pro is being bundled with a CD-ROM and 5 or 6 CDs (with various
programs) for < $A1000. This is a very good deal when you add up the
separate prices!

Organization: University of Western Sydney, Macarthur
Date: Thu, 16 Apr 1992 14:13:20 GMT

I am wondering if there may be someone who could help to resolve and problem
that I am having here.
 
I have a Apple Mac SE with a failed 20MB hard disk. So here is a chance to
upgrade the hard disk. I am now trying to fit a known working Conner CP30100
SCSI drive to the Mac which will give me 120MB hard disk space.
I have tested other drives in the SE, such as a CONNER CP3040 drive which
works fine.
Now the problem is I cannot initialise the disk using either the apple program
that is supplied with the genuine apple hard disk test disk, or with a setup
disk that comes from the the Conner supplier.
If I run the hard disk test of the apple disk all tests pass except that it
comes back with an INVALID PARTITION TABLE error.
Is there a way to get around this problem?
 
Your ideas would be greatly appreciated, either posting or e-mail thanks.

 Yes this is true. I had all sorts of problems running tune-up 1.1 with
System 7.01 on my IIfx - wierd crashes in low memory as the blurb says.

 The update is tune-up 1.1.1, all it does is fixes the bugs in 1.1. It is
already available on archie.au in /micros/mac/info-mac/ex

There are two Camera examples that I know of, one based on Hypercard and

The Hypercard example is available as a commercial product (or at least

.iff means its probably an Electronics Arts/Amiga IFF file.
Thses may can almost anything. Pictures, sound animation, word
processing etc.  If it is a bitmap (IFF/ilbm) of some kind, you might be
able to use the PBM utilities, available for unix machines and others
from the archives.  There are probably other methods.

Why does System 7.0.1 need a tune-up in the first place? What horrible 
things will go wrong if I don't use this tune up?

Any Authorised Apple Reseller should be able to sell you MacX.  I think
UNSW is now part of the Apple Consortium, so check with them for the
best price (MacX is A$385 RRP, I think).

The only other products for X-Windows is A/UX 3.0 which includes the
X-Window client software and libraries.  If you want Motif, you have
to buy it separately (it's not an Apple product).
