I have a malfunctioning controller card in a genuine AT (w/ 9Mg clock).
It doesn't write to either the 360K or the 1.2 meg floppy, but works
fine with the orginal 20 meg HD.

Does anyone know if one can use an old controller card from a PC and
an appropriate 360K floppy, TOGETHER in the AT with the HD controller?

If someone has tried this before I would like to have the benefit of
their experience.

Thanks in advance.
