The manual says "WIN_FORMAT 1" to allow HD's to be formatted (doing this 
did not format my win1_ drive).  It then says "WIN_FORMAT 0" to disallow 
HD's to be formatted (which gives an error).

Now you are saying WIN_FORMAT X will format drive X.  So to format the 
Syquest I would have to do the following:
    WIN_DRIVE 3,1      (Set win3_ to the slave drive on the primary bus)
    WIN_FORMAT 3     (to format the drive)

I just tried that (with SMSQ/E 2.91 in ROM) and it did not work.

So, it looks like the manual is correct.
