                   I too have a trusty old IBM AT. I has a 5.25" drive only
but I temporarily installed a 3.5" drive when setting up a network.

     i know it might sound obvious, but did you try changing the setup ??

I know it worked for me ! I was able to set up drive B as a 3.5" and I know
that I could also set up another 5.25" with extreme ease...

          Try changing the set-ups, it should work.
