Gateway 400 Series BIOS

[Stone]

The PCTools I use is v4.30 and Norton is v4.5 AE. These versions are from 1988 and 1990 respectively and are bacically the foundation of my floppy disk utilities. List is v9.0h from 1994.

stone nailed it on the head! All I want, are the "A", "B" and me internal hard disks, which are already able to be seen by DOS. Personally, I think the option that is going to work best is adding an ISA floppy controller. And, since my tweener supports 16 bit ISA cards, all I need to know is whish card to get. I'll add it to my list of items I am buying at the end of the month.

Thanks again everyone. I think we finally have exactly what I need!

I'm gonna come clean to all of ya'. When I boot my tweener to get something written to a 5.25" disk -- I boot to DOS!!! No USB, no HD, just A:, B: and a very large RamDrive. So, if Thomas wants to do it this way he's gonna need a dual floppy controller. Bottom line here, it works every time and there are zero conflicts. In the event I need to access the HD on that machine which happens to have a 10 gb drive in it I boot from a WIN ME boot disk which recognizes large disks and gives me access to the entire HD. I just don't like to be running WinBlows when I'm doing old DOS stuff.
