Ed, I have left Ben Blish a few questions in regard to this, and thought I should try the same with you…. I just installed your SCSI interface, Adaptech 4000, and a CDC Wren 36 meg HD. Ater going through all kinds of strange "Format Command Error – XX" messages,…

Well, I don't know if I'm making progress or not, but I finally got all the way through the format processes with no error messages! Problem is now, with all that behind me, I can't seem to get the HD to respond… ie: after the format, Quickformat, and mount, all…

Hi Ben, In trying to format my CDC Wren 36 megger with SCSIdos 2.01, I get all the way through the 3 write and verify checks, only to get a 'Format Control Error -30' message about 30 seconds into the final format. Any ideas? Thanks Darryl Huneycutt 71546, 1004

Oops!! Sorry, Doug! I forgot to add that I have my printer set to emulate IBM..(DIP switch 2-2 off, with all other switches on.) As I mentioned above, this allows for access to all features except Italics, and produces a much better graphics dump that in Star mode…For now, I…
