I get the feeling the HD has gone goofy. I had a  drive, no problems at
all, but when I shared it with another drive on the same IDE port it
wouldn't act right, no matter if it was the Master or Slave, even tried
every jumper combination imaginable just in hopes it would work. In
windows I'd see 2 C: drives and 2 D: drives, and only the Master had the
Active Partition on it. The PC would get confused and report file not
found. You can rack your brains and loose hair over this stuff! <G>
