<continuation> On their setup floppys, they have two unit entries, one with Disable_IRQ and one with NoDiable_IRQ, but unfortunately the Disable_IRQ example is the FIRST on, and the one *I* used without much modification. That is what caused my problem. But once discovered, it *WAS* easially corrected. Why have the option? Well, with Disable_IRQ set, the hard drive works faster. A Seagate SCSI drive on my computer with the Kronos was about the same speed as a similar Seagate SCSI drive on a friend's HardFrame. With NoDisable_IRQ, it was just a little slower. With the option to set it, you can have different hard drives, or different PARTITIONS of a single hard drive, set up for "safe" use of telecommunications, or for speed. I don't know what the "problem" between you and Ron is, but since it *IS* discussed in the manual, I can hardly believe that he has "…been instructed by C Ltd. to not mention it." Lloyd
