<++++++++++++++> Rather than hassle with a PROM burner, which isn't something everyone has lying around, just spend 95 bucks for "DUB-14", from Golden Bow Systems in San Diego. You get a software disk plus two PROM chips to plug into your motherboard, in the unused PROM sockets. The software in the chips expands the AT's ROMBIOS table of drives, by almost 50 extra. The approach is so good that it fools even the Dealer Diagnostics for the AT. The only problem you will have is that if you rerun the SETUP program, you must rerun the Golden Bow setup program. Just a satisfied customer, etc. The usual disclaimers ..... Phil Burton Xerox Corp.
