I got it figured out. For one thing, I transferred the latest ADT
disk image from my pc over to the apple. This may have helped, but
what really fixed it was going into the windows control panel and
changing the port settings.

Silly me, I thought that the s/w on the pc side could change those
settings without needing to change it at the system config level.

Anyway, I got good transfers of my apple disks...and I even went all
the way with 1 program...used ciderpress to extract the stuff from
the apple images, cleaned up the file and sent it to the hp2000...and
the program worked great!!!!

Thanks for the help!!
