My driver works fine, but whenever I load it, I cannot access my A-Drive or B-Drive. Per instructions from your hotline, the load command omits an IRQ specification, and the messages which appear during boot contain a "No IRQ" line and no error messages. But, if I try to access A or B using Windows file manager or even Native DOS 6.0, I get a parity error message and my system hangs. The only recovery is to reboot. Needless to say, this is very inconvenient, and I don't even know where to start looking for the problem; BIOS? CMOS? Hardware? DOS 6.0? I can't even tell what software is issuing the parity error message. Any leads will be appreciated.

It sounds like you are having IRQ problems. Try changing the jumper position at DACK2 to another DACK position on the jumper block and see if that helps at all. If that doesn't work, then your motherboard may just be incompatible with the LL upgrade method.

Many thanks; I moved the jumper from DACK2 to DACK3, and everything seems to be working fine.
