Are you sure you mean tracks...assuming you really mean cylinders, 
4 heads * 1806 cylinders *46 sectors = 162Megs. (plus a little bit)

There has to be SOMETHING messed up here.  Check to make sure you've entered
a bios setting that definitely does have 4 heads, 46 sectors, and 1806
cylinders.  Sometimes it is possible to get a number wrong somewhere.

I used diskmanager ONCE.  I just don't get along with it.  Partly because it
does stuff like assign read/write partitions, and partly because it just
doesn't do what I want a program to do with a hard disk.  My documentation
for harddrives is kind of old, so it doesn't list the drive you have, I need
to find something more up to date.  Other than double checking stuff I'm not
sure what could be wrong (without being there myself).

The drivers for the drive are dependant on which SCSI controller you are 
using. An adaptec controller would use the ASPI4DOS.SYS in your config.sys
to allow you to access the Bernoulli.

I'm not speaking from experience here, just from what I have heard.


DMA channel 0 is used for refresh on "generic" XTs.  On ATs, refresh is handle
by dedicated refresh hardware.  This means disabling refresh on XTs could mean
losing memory contents and other stuff.  If you don't need to do this on a
generic XT, then no problem.

Keywords: External cache problem
Date: 29 Jul 92 21:38:38 GMT
Organization: University of Helsinki

Hi, I have a really weird problem with a 486dx 33MHz motherboard. The
board was working just fine, but then it was moved into a new case, all
SIMMs, controllers and expansion cards were replaced. 

Now the system started to crash after warming up for a couple of
minutes. After the crash it does the memory check, but when it usually
shows the AMI-box with info about the setup it decides to lock up
completely. When reseting the machine
after that it just does the same. The board has an AMI bios, and the setup
works even if the machine doesn't want to boot. By disabling the
external cache the machine works well (even after the crash).

So the problem is in the external cache. But why does it crash after
warming up, and then refuse to start? How can I test which IC to
replace? I do not have spare IC's for just testing.

I am very curios to know what is wrong and why, and how to fix it, since
this is a problem I have not encountered before. So if the problems ring
any bells, please tell me!

Correct me if I'm wrong: The speed of the "Weitek" coprocessors is
approximately twice the speed of the 387 FPU. This increase is
done at the cost of compability & $$. To take advantage of a 387,
you need a program compiled for a 387: to take advantage of a Weitek,
you need a program, compiled for a Weitek.


There was a discussion here some time ago (December/januar) about the
387 FPUs.  The speed discusion ended with:

    CYRIX > IIT > ULSI >> INTEL

I personally ended up with a IIT. I haven't found the compability
problems that was rumoured, but on the other hand: the extra matrix
multiplication didn't help me either. The documentation is a disk with
libraries for the most common compilers, where the extra matrix
multiplication has been added: the opcode/speed of the extra
instruction isn't mentioned anywhere (so if you have an unsupported
compiler: to bad :-(

It is not new, I have had one of those cards, in my PC for the last 12

I know this sounds weird, but try running with the minimum amount of cards
installed.  Next move the multi io card around.  I had the same exact
problem with my 386-40, a made in taiwan multi-io card, and a 7120AT HD.

For some reason (possibly bus noise), if I had any cards to the right of
where the io card was, I had trouble accessing the hard drive at turbo
speed.  With the io card in the rightmost slot, and all the other cards
to the left of the io card, no problem.  I can't explain why my system
is like this, but I can recreate the problem by rearranging my internal
cards.

By the way, I only had the problem when I upgraded from a prodesigner IIs
to a Hicolor Stealth.  No one has yet to come up with good explaination
yet, but my system is up and working at turbo speed now!!

I hope this "black-magic" trick might help out...

I have a really strange problem. On a 386 in the lab that has 2 RLL
Mitsubishi harddrives (both partitioned in 2 meaning there are 4
logical drives, c: to f:), every once in a reboot (I reboot the machines
every morning. Just to start a new day off on a new slate. Strange
custom, huh?:) ) it would show that the second physical harddrive is
empty, although it is there. To clarify, the first physical drive contains
drives c: & d: and the second one contains drives e: & f:. Things would
normally work ok, but every once in a reboot, drives e: and f: are
both empty even though I do see drives e: and f:. But if I shut it off
and turn it back on enough times, it would come back. And everything
would be fine again. Including reboots. While the drives are empty, I
can access it too, "echo > junk" would create the file and I can
"type" it to see the contents for example. I know I shouldnt do this
but I just want to make sure the drive is still accesible. So the
drives e: & f: are perfectly fine except they are empty. That's what
makes me think that this is not a hardware problem. I'm using DOS 5
and I have removed all drivers and TSRs from config.sys & autoexec.bat
and this is still the case. So I'm thinking maybe DOS is screwing up
somehow and the FAT in memory for drives e: & f: .... well, something
happen to them during bootup. Any other thoughts? Thanks.

I recently bought a 386/33 with 1Mb (4x 256x9 80ns) and plugged in another meg
I got for free from a devoted Mac-user, being 4x 256x8 120ns (not sure about
speed). After disabling parity check and setting both read- and write- wait
states to 1, they work just fine...until I have saved enough money to buy
me 4 Mb (:-)

I've been offered a used HP ScanJet Plus.  I have a few questions.

*	What software should come with the device.

*	Have there been any recent improvements in the SJ+ that would make 
	a new or recently new unit very much more desirable?

*	Does the advertised price in the ads include the interface card?

*	If not, what does a PC card cost?

*	Would $500 be a reasonable price for such a unit?

Email would be appreciated, as I need this info fairly quickly.

Thanks,
John

I originally bought a Zoltrix and have had to replace the firmware
three times and now the non-volatile RAM won't save my profile.

The Gateway Telepath looks mighty attractive for Gateway customers.

Otherwise, US Robotics has a 14.4kBaud modem/fax w/ v.32bis and
v.42bis on sale at Elek Tek for cheap cheap cheap.  It is the cream of
the crop in my eyes.

Any comments welcome.
