I have problem in setting up a PS2 Modl 70 (386).
The problem is that the system does not recognize
the drive C: (the hard drive). When I turn on the 
system, it gives me the initial screen of Basic, 
and I can not get anywhere from there. If I boot 
the system from drive A:, then I cannot access C:
(it is not recognizable).

I tried to setup the system using the available
"Reference disk" at hand. I could not figure how
to set the the hard disk. The configuration option
just gives the floppy drives setup.

My questions:
1. What BIOS comes with these systems (since I am 
unfamiliar with PS2)?
2. How can I configure the system with a hard drive?
3. What kind(s) of disks do I need for all setup
procedure?

Please respond by emial to me. I appreciate any and 
all comments.
