Dell made a bunch of drives, and most are intercompatible but there is no real matrix online. Can you please take some pics by chance? I have a few older dells (p3 and p4) with floppy drives, external and internal. They may work. :D

I would suggest a PAS16 or GUS. I have a few PAS16's, as I find them to be decently compatible, and very clean sound quality.

The cards still need a file system to function, most likely fat-16. Perhaps the Poquet uses Fat-12 as the file system? I do know MSDOS 3.3 supported both. If the Poquet is indeed fat12, the partition/drive limit is 8mb I believe (and would have issues with a 10mb card). Just a hunch.

Are you remembering to format them in fat16 and not fat32?

I remember doing a brief semester on 3d modeling in autocad r12. And the textures were on the CDRom. Why I am thinking caddy based, for me it was a 2X NEC drive. I had the 3x at home in my Dell 486...

Maybe a caddy based cdrom drive?

https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/hardware-identify/ Use this tool to find the hardware id's of devices stored without drivers. Sure you can do it manually, but this makes it so much easier. It also checks if you have the newest drivers as well as help you find them.

Great to see someone loving one of these machines for what they are, and not gutting them for some "cyberdeck" or whatever nonsense. Beautiful machine! Reminds me, I have to get the keyboard fixed on my Portable I!

Try cleaning the slots out... Normal issue with ram simm sockets.

What I own is less then 1/10th this place had. I wanted to make the pilgrimage. Just too far to be viable sadly. Crossing fingers on something similar in the midwest... :P

Im going to guess the chip was cracked before the cap let go... I've seen cracked chips do crazy things when powered, including self ignition!

Take the CPU out and make sure with the level up, you try to slide it in a little more. Either that or the tab on the socket broke off. In that case, hot glue the lever down...

Still use that bent butterknife! LOL

Noticed one for sale for a honest decent price. Almost grabbed it then realized I would never use the extra ram or RTC. Figured someone here may have more intrest. https://www.ebay.com/itm/156144112413

Sorry, I didn't notice you were in Canada. As much as I love to have it, I'll leave it for someone in Canada as well. If you are going to scrap it, I would love the faceplate.

What do you want for the Tandon? Been looking for a full height 360k IBM branded one for my XT! Fact it tries to work.... And I can come up with something for the resistor pack.... Love a real working drive B, vs TEAC I am using now with the GoTek. Last part I need.

I kinda agree, I have a few of these, but Graviis Quickshot ones. Even one new in the box. Cool if you own an XT or PC with the boxes I guess.

I have a Compaq K6-2 I got at VCF Midwest for 20 bux. Pretty fun little machines, but I wouldn't want to use XP on it. Sadly only thing dead is the cdrom (battery still holds a 20-30 min charge!). To replace it, have to take the entire machine apart, motherboard out and everything. What a crappy...

One of the 100s of variants of pong... Now the one with the lightgun could be interesting!

Guide how to use anything more then 4gb ram on XP as a ramdisk...
