[QUOTE="Barkie, post: 1595358, member: 329831"] At work we have a stand alone Mac from around 1994 no network access. It just stopped printing and we are worried its about to die and loose all the files on it. So I found a donor computer, e machine 733i and I installed XP and Foxpro, also an Adaptec 29160 SCSI card with the drive. The old drive appears to be running Foxpro in DOS on top of Apple 7.5.1 and would like to be able to pull those files off the old drive and transfer them to something more modern. Now when I boot the e machine I see the drive detected, no errors and comes up in XP. I can see the Fireball drive in device manager, but not under My Computer. I found two programs I will try Monday Macdrive Pro and UFS-explorer to try. I posted on an XP forum and didn't get much help. I'm not exactly sure how to go about this. I originally tried Ubuntu 8.10 with Wine, but never could get Wine to cooperate, and without a Internet connection and I lost a lot of hair. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
