I've had an interesting problem with my 2091, and would like to know if this is a documented and preferrably fixed defect. I have a 2091 with a Quantum ProDrive 105 on device 0 and a ProDrive 80 on device 1. Periodically when accessing both drives through 2 different multi-tasking programs, the disk led would come on full and everything would lock up. By pressing my ear to the case, I can tell that there is no head movement going on. At this point, my only recourse is to re-boot. This is bad enough as it is, but it has occasionally trashed files when one of the programs running is writing to a file. My file gets trashed and the system has to go through validation on re-boot. Yesterday, this happened again, only programs that were accessing the 2 disks were obviously writing. In trying to re-boot, the system went into validation on both drives and locked up EVERY TIME. I had to tear down the system to pull the power cable on the 80 meg drive, re-boot to allow the 100 meg drive to validate. Re-connect the 80 meg drive and reboot to validate it. Besides taking up 2 hours of my time trying other things before I thought of doing this, this procedure puts a real crimp in my productivity if I'm going to have to do it periodically, not to mention I will be constantly facing the fear of loosing data everytime I try to run 2 programs at once. There has got to be a solution. I hope someone can help ASAP. Here's my configuration: A2000/A2620 2 meg (3 total) Old fat Agnus (512k) Rev 4.2 motherboard A2091 0 meg memory Prodrive 105 on 0 Prodrive 80 on 1 1 is terminated, 0 is not A2088 Bridgeboard A1010 as df2: ADos/WB 1.3.2 Beginning of my Startup-sequence movessp SetPatch zeroclear FastMemFirst binddrivers setcpu fastrom cardrom s:cardromlist nopatch verbose … Thanks in advance for any help you can give. – Don
