Hi Keith ... thanks for writing. Below are some links to answer your questions and get you going. If you need a boot disk, these are always available from the Catalog and Order Form at Club 100 (www.club100.org) for only 2 bucks. If you have the ability to transfer files between a PC and your Model 102 or 200 then you are already set up with a Model "T" dos, like TEENY or TS-DOS. If not, then download the DL-ARC.EXE self-deARCing file at http://www.club100.org/catalog.html#hotsetup and get set up for file transfers to a PC. During the process you will load TEENY ... part of the archive. Also in the archive are dos100.co and dos200.co ... these are RAM versions of TS-DOS for the 100/102 and 200 respectively. There is also a BASIC DOS called DSKMGR.CO (disk manager) which is found in the Club 100 library DRIVES category http://www.club100.org/library/libdrv.html Booting instructions, as well as drive belt changing instructions are here: http://www.club100.org/library/libsup.html Now ... the BIGGIE is testing the drive without a dos ... the amazing Ron Wiesen provided those instructions here: http://www.club100.org/library/libdoc.html ... see the heading "Diagnostic & Diagrams" That's about it for now. Good luck and congratulations on 1) getting a Model 102, and 2) posting a question for the first time. That's exciting, sir. -Rick-
