[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Question: 1.44M drive on XT

genemans@eleazar.dartmouth.edu (Jan Genemans) (03/18/89)

I have recently installed a 1.44M  3 1/2" disk drive in an XT compatable that
uses the 80188 processor.  I have no problems formatting and reading disks in
the 720k format; however, I cannot read or write 1.44M disks.  Is there any
way of doing this (read/write 1.44M) without buying a new controller board.
Please reply using e-mail.  Thanks in advance.
