[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] Q -- Switch settings for installing HD on ibm PC

rfink@eng.umd.edu (Russell A. Fink) (04/19/91)

I need to know what switch settings I should use on an old IBM-PC, not
an XT or an AT or anything, to install a hard disk.  I have the card in
place, and the machine seems to 'sense' the drive at boot-up, but the
reference disk doesn't list it as a recognized device.
1.  Am I right in guessing that some system switches need setting?
2.  If so, could some kind soul let me know what they are?  I seem to have
    lost the documentation on installation, along with the computer that
    the drive came out of.  (don't ask -- tax time stress, etc.)

Thanks very much!
