Dear Gary. Same with me. As my wife does not allow to change anything on her computer, not even the colors of her cga screen, I still have not found out how the Seagate ST-225 is started. I have no idea how the setup could be looked at, but if the full count is done, search is done on the A disk and then the C where I have the autoexec.bat and confi.sys. It seems that with an imcomplete count this mechanisme is interrupted. Thought that the floppy disk was corrupted but at the umpteens time trying to boot via the A drive it finaly came to life and functions properly. If only the boot via the C drive would work again.

Don't know how that relates to an apparent memory problem in your XT, though. Gary -- NTReader v0.36w(P)/Beta (Registered) in conjunction with Net-Tamer.
