I'm having a problem with the floppy drive cable I (finally) got to connect
the new PC floppy drive into my NMS 8250. It only works when hooked up one
certain way, where it detects the drive as the B: drive. Part of the cable
is twisted, but nothing I do seems to be able to make it recognize is as an
A: drive. The cable looks something like this (5.25" connectors are being
excluded):
______________
|______________|
||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||
|||||||||||||| <---- There is a twist here
||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||
______________
|______________| <------ Drive only works when this
|||||||||||||| connector and the one without a
|||||||||||||| twisted cable (below) are the two
|||||||||||||| connected
||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||

I would appreciate it immensely if anyone could help me with this. I took a
look inside the drive, but was unable to find the DS jumper.
