Rob, my system is Edge on the new machine so I think the files had different names for that reason, but I figured them out and found the users file. I moved the files all into the same folder and they for the most part work. I had a couple of files from the old disk that would not give up the data. maybe a bad file or spot in disk? IDK. but over all, seems to be working. Everything has to be in the same file folder, like you said. The printer is not working right. When loading an 'old' shoot file,...

Ok, thanks, I will see if I can do that and try it. Ralph

Rob. I took the disk back to the old machine, it will load and run. I have tried using ; LOAD, Load, load, then " and also even leaving out the ("), program name (BP), (bp), and another program (bp6), put in and left out; .BAS, .bas, ("), and leaving it out, put (BAS) and (bas) outside the quotes. and the error is mostly "File not found", also "syntax error". I have to be using either the wrong command or I think that the program is not finding the right drive, I even copied both of these program...

I have to files copied to a 3 1/2 floppy, using the USB port floppy drive connected to the new machine, it recognizes the dish and drive, I have checked the directory on the dish and it says the programs are there, but when I try to access the base program from PC Basic it does not pick it up, I have tried several different load commands, but it always tells me that it cannot find the program. I tried coping the program to hard drive on the compter and it still does not pick it up. And suggestions?...

Thanks again, I will try that route, and the old machine has a 3 /12 drive, I never used it much but when I did it worked fine. Ralph I try to let you know if this is successful. R

Thank you for your help, it is appreciated. If the original equipment read the disk in to the old computer, how do I get it to another medium to get it to the new computer? I am not understanding that part of the process. I had loaded one of the old disk about 8-9 years ago and it worked fine, I think the equipment will still work, I don't know about the disks. Thanks again. Ralph

I am running a Windows 10 program now, usb ports, and disk drive.
