Thanks again to those who have responed to my call for help.

I have an update and more questions to ask.

I have given up on the WD drive becuase "drive setup" says that it is un
supported.  I have corrected the terminator settings on my cdroms and zip
drives to be:

cdrom 1    ID 1
cdrom 2    ID 3
Zip            ID 2 and terminated.

Should I switch the ID of cdrom 2 and zip or is that just me being silly?

I can now at least boot from a floppy or the zip. I must have a defective os
9 disk, but anyways. My task now is to get the Quantum Viking drive to be
seen by the drive setup software.  I have a link to the settings for the
drive from Maxtor it is
http://www.maxtor.com/en/documentation/pdf_jumper_settings/viking_jumpers.pd
f.  The drive I have starts at page 4 I think, because on the bottom of the
drive I have a TE and a TP setting which are both jumpered (closed).

My question is, how would I set this Viking drive up to the only unit on the
wide scsi bus?  I am also assuming that because "drive setup lite" dones not
complete the bus scan (I have to force quit it) that it has to be a
termination problem. PS my controller is a 3490UWD which has no jumpers on
it. My E100 card still hangs the system on boot up.

Hope you can help me.
