      From: theguitarmanSPAM@charter.net              In the photo, the drive jumpers selections are:       On the left side 2 jumpers labeled "M1 & M2"       To the right of those jumpers is the second row of jumpers labeled "0, 1, 2       & 3".              I've tried a few things at this point. Its like working a puzzle to say the       least! ;-)       I tried clamping a couple of floppy connectors (the older 40 pin type) onto       the stock Edge Card cable. Ones I knew to be from pin 1 attached to the 3.5       floppies as master & slave drives. I plugged in the stock 5.25" master drive       in the computer and that drive worked like it should. It still doesn't see       the 3.5 yet. I've tried different jumper combinations and cable set ups and       still have not gotten lucky, As a matter of fact as a side note, some of       these combinations seem to have actually corrupted a couple of the 5.25 OS       floppies I was using. I'd get a fresh disk and it booted up okay again. That       was weird.       It would be great if I had either a cable or 3.5 floppy drive I knew was       setup & working correctly, instead of trying to figure this out with two of       the items not setup right at the same time.              Any other tips greatly appreciated.       :-)       TIA,       -Chris                            "Chris Young" |
