The only way I am sure it will work is to get a 4 floppy controller and HD controller with no floppies. However, people do make floppy controllers with alternate port addresses, I've seen the address info in various places. You do have to readdress the 2nd controller. If you're running UNIX you have a worse problem with configuring the interrupt, too. -- bill davidsen - davidsen@sixhub.uucp (uunet!crdgw1!sixhub!davidsen) sysop *IX BBS and Public Access UNIX moderator of comp.binaries.ibm.pc and 80386 mailing list "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me
