So POWER GOOD and all voltages okay.
So if there is a partial short on the +5V line of your 5162 motherboard, then both power supplies are dealing with it.
I haven't time to look through the 5162 technical reference now (on [this] link), but I have no doubt that the 1700 series checks (hard drive) will be the same as those for a 5170. The first check is the 1782, where the POST asks the controller to do a self check. A 1782 is posted if the controller responds in the negative, or the controller does not respond. See [here] for details.
The new information about the controller working in a 486 DX2 system in very interesting.
The symptoms/results though can be explained by the slot on the 5162 not having all signals. Damaged by corrosion? Does use of all 16-bit slots result in the 1782 error?
