Message-ID: <1613@ecsvax.UUCP> Date: Sun, 25-May-86 01:33:41 EDT Article-I.D.: ecsvax.1613 Posted: Sun May 25 01:33:41 1986 Date-Received: Mon, 26-May-86 06:48:32 EDT Distribution: net Organization: North Carolina Educational Computing Service Lines: 15 I added a hard disk to my Deskpro at work and now have a new problem: after a floppy disk format, the computer hangs up completely. I assume it is the incompatibility of the disk controller (hard disk) with the Compaq BIOS but everything else works great and has for a year- as long as you don't format floppies... Any clues/common experiences? Charles Lord Triangle R&D Corp. RTP,NC cjl@ecsvax.UUCP
