controller that wan't specifically designed to handle the 3.5" disk drive, you
may want to try replacing it with a Western Digital Fox controller.  I have a
3.5" and 5.25" drive set(1.44Mb and 360K) in a clone and am using the Jameco
floppy controller card.  I recommend the fox though, since the Jameco has
the annoying problem of not formatting 360K or 720K disks when the PC is
in 8 Mhz mode.  I have to put it into 5 Mhz mode to format the disks.
