Help, I just bought an IDE hard drive for my 386BB and I can't get things working. I'm using the Super multi I/O card from Elite Microcomputers. I have in the past used the BB floppy controller and the I/O cards VGA/VESA and serial and parallel ports ok. But I can't get the IDE floppy and hard drive controller to work. If you have this set up and it's working can you give me your configuration. IE the BB jumper settings and BB setup settings, IBM drive types ie A: and C:. I have a dedicated 1.4 mb floppy drive for the IBM and am not sharing any amiga drives. I tried J506, J601, J501 and J502 all removed. I have no idea what J101's pipeline mode is so I left it alone. I tried numerous configurations and have had no luck. I assume that the floppy controller on the BB must be disabled if the I/O cards floppy controller is enabled. Any info or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Nick. (Vancouver, B.C. Canada) Go Lions, down with Baltimore Colts
