PC Transporter Failed



    It is very interesting that there are very few PC Transporter cards
which they have failed to be recognized by Apple IIgs like my previous post
before.  It appears to be an unknown solution.  In fact is that PC
Transporter card is in good condition that it is not used for a long term
probably over 10 years.  It may be something to do with IC chip and
components that they have bad contacts or they might be decayed.
    I own three copies of PC Transporter cards.  Two of them are operating
fine, but one of them does not.

    Another interesting problem is that one of two working PC Transporter
stopped operating after approximately 10-30 minutes.  After stop working, I
press Control-Reset.  I begin to hear the beep that machine language breaks
before "*" prompt appears more than 10 times.  I have to reboot every time
in order to attempt to access MS-DOS, but it begins to freeze, and then
break into machine language.
    I suspect that it may be the heat problem on PC Transporter.

    Superdrive works fine without through TransDrive.  It fails to work
while TransDrive is being used.  I have no idea why.  I get sick tired of
doing both Superdrive and TransDrive that they make me turn into
frustration.  I like BlueDisk very much that it can be done with PC
Transporter directly.  I can be able to transfer files using BlueDisk with
1.44MB instead of 720KB.  It does work with 360KB and 1.2MB.

    Please tell me what you have experience.  We are interested to hear.
