$I started to suspect the BIOS. The machine that could write 360K disks had a
$CAC-AMI (?) BIOS, the other had an AWARD 3.01. I discovered another machine
$in our office had an AWARD 3.03, so I swapped BIOS ROMs over.

   Hmm ... my brother has an AWARD BIOS in his AT, which he's had for over
two years now, and can write 360K disks with no problems ... I don't know
what version his BIOS is, but it obviously isn't too recent.
