Niall,
Thanks for the weepeing with me.
It is a Future Domain TMC1670. The hard drive is Seagate Barracuda ST32550N
The Bios ( I thinkis what is telling me this) recognizes the controller,
the controller recognizes the drive, but we continually get messages that
tell us it we can't read the media. It reports disk size as Zero,
I have an IDE disk with Win 3.11 in and am not sure if I have it blocked
(if that is needed). We did go into the Bios and disable the IDE. We think
we have jumpers on controller adn drive set to terminate.
