Yes, you're right. I finally got the manual downloaded. I did get that
cover off and the stuff is there. I'm not too sure about the SATA 3Gb thing
and I'm not sure if that drive would be compatible with anything I have to
slave it to. I finally called the owner and he OK-ed putting the factory
image back on it, so that's what I'm currently doing.
It's one of those Best Buy specials. The Geek Squad wanted more than what
it cost new to fix it.
Thanks to all who offered suggestions in this thread!
And sorry about the Menno Hershberger / Li'l Abner mixup... :-)
