You failed to mention the type of machine... that is AT, XT or ??? I
just installed a 1.4meg 3.5" drive on my AT. My system has an NCL
Hard disk/Floppy disk controller with two hard disks and two
floppies attached. I now have a 1.2 meg 5.25 and a 1.4meg 3.5
working flawlessly... bite my tongue... It was plug & play since my
bios supports both.
