Message-ID: <1991Jun20.035357.25316@macc.wisc.edu> Date: 20 Jun 91 03:50:47 GMT Sender: news@macc.wisc.edu (USENET News System) Distribution: world Organization: University of Wisconsin Academic Computing Center Lines: 15 I am attempting to install a Fujitsu M2263S/H SCSI drive in a DTK 386/33 machine (with DTK BOIS) and a Trident 256kb SVGA card. I can boot from floppy and create a partition on the HD, format it and put a SYStem on it, but the machine will not boot from the drive. The adaptec BIOS finds the drive, and the DTK BIOS is configured for NO-DRIVe like the adaptec manual says to do. After looking for a floppy in drive A:, the system hangs. The Adaptec BIOS is loading in a good memory location (video is not interferring). Any ideas?? Any help would really be appreciated. mike ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael L.
