New Zealand, Dear 'Gus, Just received EUG21 and many Thanks, a great effort. I keenly placed disc 1 in the drive and all went well untill I tried to read the letters. It appears that LMenu has not copied or had been over written. Everything else seems to work so it's not a problem of anything happening in the post. I wonder if you or a member can help with a query concerning PRES? A fellow electron owner aquired a Pluscom 40 and an AP34. As both were faulty he wrote to Slogger and PRES. Slogger after locating a working master sent us a working copy at a cost which is understandable. However although I have offered payment using my Visa card I haven't had a response from PRES. The AP34 appears to have a ROM missing. I have even rung and left a message on the answering machine after a message that refered to ACP. The telephone number I have is 44-1256-56666 In the past I have had good service from PRES having bought several of their products. The AP34 does not respond to a call for the DFS and the centre socket is empty. The right holds the WD1770 chip with the markings JAPAN 8703, HM6264LP-15, UO422TTO. I am told that there are several versions of the DFS and it is probably necessary to have the correct one fot the AP34. I am assuming that the centre socket is for the DFS chip. Could one of our members help with information and possably a ROM image of the correct version. Or is it possable for someone there to get a response from PRES? Yours, Alan Richardson GETTING SPARES AND SUCH FOR THE ELK AND THE BEEB IS BECOMMING INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT. COMPANIES WHICH USE TO SELL ELK PRODUCTS FOR `50 NOW WANT TO SELL PC STUFF FOR `500. SO MUCH ELK AND BEEB SUPPLIES IS ENDING UP IN SOMBODIES SHED OR THE RIBBISH BIN. IT'S SAD THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO WANT THINGS AND PEOPLE WHO HAVE THEM. I HOPE SOMBODY CAN HELP YOU WITH INFORMATION ON THIS ROM. I SEEM TO REMEMBER THOUGH THAT THE AP34 DID HAVE AN EXTRA ROM SOCKET THOUGH I MAY BE WRONG. IF ANY MEMBERS HAVE AN AP34 OR EXPERIENCE OF THEM CAN THEY CONTACT EUG WITH ANY ADVICE OR EXPERIENCE? I WILL TRY TO CONTACT PRES TO SEE IF I CAN GET SOME JOY BUT I THINK THAT WHAT WE AS EUG NEED TO DO IS TO TRY AS FAR AS POSSABLE TO START HELPING OURSELVES.
