Could it be that you have two floppy controllers enabled??? Try
disabling one of them. There may be a setting in CMOS for the on board
floppy controller, or a jumper on the SCSI card for disabling it.
i guess i'd better go to the adaptec website and check the jumper
settings...
you sure can't tell by looking at it...
there is no option to enter cmos like there would be on the newer scsi
cards
thanks

What model of SCSI card do you have? Also, when I referred to CMOS, I
meant the CMOS for the mother board. Sometimes you can disable it and
the conflict with the controller on the SCSI card will go away.
yes...i knew that...i tried it both ways. with floppies enabled in the
(mobo) bios
and without.
the two boards i have are AHA-1542b & 1522
the last time i checked , adaptec did still list the specs of obsolete
boards on their website... i just recalled seeing jumpers to set the IRQ...
i'll have to go back there and look around when i get the time
thanks... this was more a matter of curiosity...it's not like i really need
to use a 486 G !
