Lines: 19 Help needed ! I have been trying to install 3.5" 1.44M disk drive (Mitsubishi). Machine is CMC-386 20 Mhz AT clone (chips and techn. motherboard) with Phoenix 3.06 386 bios and DOS 3.3. Floppy disk controller supports 1.44M drive. Setup is ok (1.44M b: drive). BUT, drive works as 720Kb one. I can't format 1.44M disks. I can't read 1.44M disks. I tried to use DRIVPARM in config.sys: Reboot and ... AAARRGGH ... bad command in config.sys. the line in config.sys was: drivparm= /d:01 /f:07 I suppose there is something wrong with dos 3.3 and drivparm. Any ideas ??? -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kimmo Puranen ___ ___ ___ ___ internet: kp72074@tut.fi Orivedenkatu 18 A 14 /__ /__/ / /__ / / UUCP: ...mcvax!tut!kp72074 33720 Tampere Finland /__ / \ / ___//__/ BITNET: kp72074@fintuta.BITNET
