We have 1987 Commodore-Amiga computer at work. It was to be y2k compatible after the techs worked on it. But it is not working--it won't take any disks. Only when we type dos and return we get a new screen but we can't do anything else (and we don't have the budget to buy a new computer) Does anyone have any suggestions? HELP!

Call me crazy, but.... what would you be using a commodore for now days?

my suggestion, throw it away, get a USED new computer from your local repairshop etc.

You can get 486 ones for like 100 bux anywhere...
they work great for word processing etc...

could just be a hardware problem?

The Amiga Line was durable, but it's

starting to get REALLY old now.

Still a nice computer though, but I'm glad

I didn't stick with it, my AMD K6-2-450mhz

just blows it away.

The Amiga is a classic computer. I sounds like just a disk drive problem, you might just have to clean the drive.
