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. If your controller supports the drive the only other requirment is for you to perform a setup (in theory). If your BIOS does not naturally support that size drive then you will need to you the deveice driver, driver.sys to create a new logical drive. The only other thing that you may do is to get the patch from Microsoft for fixing this problem. If you are using IBM DOS you must use driver.sys to access the drive in the way that you want. -- Bill Wilson (Bitnet: ucc2wew@nauvm) Northern AZ Univ Flagstaff, AZ 86011 {These views are mine and do not necessarily reflect those of my employer}
