I recently acquired an old IBM RT-6051 tower which has number of cards using the AT-bus configuration. I own a 386-DX and was wondering which of these cards would be usable with my 386, particularly the Extended ESDI drive interface, the Token Ring Adapter, the Ethernet adapter, and the video card. I have managed to get the ESDI card's floppy drive controller to work in my 386, but the part I want to use, the hard drives, would not be recognized. Does anyone out there know why this might be and also what "type" drive the full-heights that came with the RT would be considered by an AT bios I would appreciate your help and information. Responses could be posted or mailed. -- The preceding has been brought to you by: BOB, a proud supporter of the 1992 Fighting Irish. _______________________________________________________________________ | Robert G.
