- Hello there. I need help with my A590. I just yanked the old 20meg XT
- drive that was in there and put in a Quantum 105lp. The drive spins up
- right and etc, and the HD toolbox program recognizes it for a 105Q
- and all. But when I try to do a HDtoolbox Low level format it just
- blinks for a second and says done. I tried to do a prepHD, but that
- doesn't work as it's set up for the WD20meg. I try to do a FormatHD
- (These are all from the A590 setup disk. I have only 1.3 dos) and
- it seems to format right, counting down and all, but when it gets
- to installing dos, it stops and I get a little "Not a DOS disk in unit
- 0" box up on the screen. Same for InstallHD. I'm thinking that
- perhaps I need a special program for installing a SCSI drive or something.
- Has anyone else had this same problem and can help me? Please E-mail
- responses to "ss7m@andrew.cmu.edu" Many thanks in advance!
