Thanks to all who responded to my question regarding formating a PS/2
model 80 hard disk. The reason DOS 3.3 wasn't accessing the hard disk
was becuase of the >32 meg hard disk partitions. The fix was running
DOS 4.0 fdisk in order to remove the disk partitions, than running the
DOS 3.3 fdisk in order to create new partition, than using the
format statement...

I really appreciate all those who responded....
