I have a Compaq Portable II I got off of ebay and had to replace the disk controller as the floppy section of the original did not work. I then bought a ide flash drive to use with it. The Compaq setup does not have a user defined drive type and just trying random ones has led nowhere. I can't seem to find a list on the internet that shows the drive type code, cylinders, heads, and sectors so I can try to match it up. To add to the problem the Compaq setup says push f1 for a list of drive types but it seems that it will not accept a lot of them even though it is the one that listed them. If I have to I can resort to copying the bios prom and adding an entry that matches - I hope. The ide flash drive is an Emphase 4000x that has 1000 cylinders, 16 heads, and 32 sectors. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks. Buddy
