I have a Core-tape-light QIC-80 tape backup unit with what might
be a similar problem. I runit on a 486DX 33Mhz EISA motherboard
and can only use the tape at the 8 Mhz clock and not the normal
33 Mhz clock rate where it always produces errors and aborts.
Core told me long ago that they were aware of the problem but I
never got a fix from there tech support!
I wonder if maybe this is a generic hardware speed problem with
QIC drives and that your problem is related to mine.
Let me know if you get any responses that help you.
By the way to you netlanders, maybe you know of a fix that will
let me run the Core tape drive at the rated 33 Mhz of my system.
A reply would be particularly appreciated from Core Tech support
if they see this posting.
Thanks for the help.
