I am trying to helpmy father with a problem on his system. He has a 4 drive
floppy controller (some clone brand) and a seperate hard disk controller
(WD 1003). He recently upgraded to a 286 motherboard with an AMI BIOS and
can't seem to determine how to configure the system to have more than two
floppy drives. He has set the AMI setup for the first two drives and they
work fine. The third floppy drive is not accesable.
Has anyone tried this setup and made it work? If so, how. One idea that
comes to mind is to tell AMI that no floppy drives are installed. Would
this allow the BIOS on the floppy controller to then access all installed
drives?
Thanks for any insight on this problem!
