[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Wanted: Patch for BIOS

cmpbsdb@gitpyr.gatech.EDU (Don Barry) (06/05/87)

I'm sure someone else out there has taken the time to find a quick patch
for floppy-disk wait-up-to-speed delay on accelerated AT computers.  I'm
running PCDOS 3.1, and am operating a true-blue AT at 9.6 MHz.  Often I get  
a retry error when reading from the floppy drive because the acceleration
means that delay times used to wait for the drive motor to come to speed 
are improper with the new timing.  If I have to wade through the BIOS I'll
try, but I suspect someone else has already figured out an answer.
