Did you check the termination? (the little cuff type things that fit over the little pins on the drive) Internal hard drive should be set to 0, also see if you can find the manual online for it, that will help you set the pins correctly.
As for SCSI probe and HD setup, I've found that you need to try a bunch of different SCSI utilities, somw will work with a certain drive, others won't. Silverlining, Formatter One, Mount Everything are other ones worth a try. Gamba has them on his site http://home.earthlink.net/~gamba2/ go to hard drive links Dan On Wed, 13 Nov 2002 09:20:56 +0000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hello all > > I have a problem with a HD I have just fitted > in my Classic.
