ive heard the chipset is similar to the fusions , so ive ordered an ide to usb connector and will have a go at extracting the data to my pc using the fusion file readers when it comes , woll let you all know how i get on.

Ps has any one tried to personalise the twinrecord.bin file by using a hex editor, i.e. change fonts boot up messages?

Interesting post rothers,

Ive just tried extracting data off harddrive to pc. The fusion file can see the drive , but it complains it cant identify the signiture of the boot sector , also tried syphonn which could not see the drive at all.
