Which jumper is that ? (and should it be jumpered or not ?)
Guessing that the MO drive is presenting itself as more of a removable media/CD-ROM drive.....
Power it with 5V and set it to master with no slave on that channel. It should be detected OK.
1. Remove ROM ENABLE jumper on card.If I removed the XTIDE everything boots up fine. But with that XTIDE, sucker just sits there gathering dust.
Any suggestions? Is it possible to "zero out" the EEPROM so I can start from scratch?
Well, I had some success. Using modem7's advice I was able to boot the computer and it appears the flashing worked. At least it said it was successful. Had to disable SDP to get that far.
However, the controller is recognized absolutely NO drives attached to it.
I've tried a variety of 3.5" drives (even an old 351AX), several 2" and even a couple of CF microdrives. Nothing is recognized as being attached.
Still open to suggestions.

Hi, looking back at the sale thread, these seemed to be 'Chuck-mod' equipped, so select "XT IDE rev 2 or modded rev 1" as the primary adapter type (that is the text on R435 of the Universal BIOS configurator). Should be on defaults of IO 300h, BIOS D000h. Hope that helps!
