This I assume is the win boot.
Try booting with romdisq and pressing 'break' repeatedly after pressing
F1/F2 - you might get in before SMSQ loads. If not, connect the Romdisq
disable jumper and follow the instructions in the manual.

Not needed with Romdisq - this is loaded by Romdisq before F1/F2 (you
said this earlier)
IPCMOUSE 1 :Remark to enable superHermes mouse assuming you are using that.

See where it is plugged in to Supergoldcard - it should be the top
connector - and of course it should go to the drives. If it is the wrong
way round on the drives, they will probably both light up permanently.
Also check that the power cable is plugged in to the floppies.

Read the qubide manual (8-)# It is the win_drive command.

If you get a floppy disk boot working, then that will run before Romdisq
or HD.
