Hello!
I have 2 IBM 5160, one that has two floppys and runs fine and the other with one floppy and a 20Mb HD that doesn't turns on, so I thought that i could install the HD on the working one and use it, took the Xebec and the HD and plugged everything in the unit.
As I started the computer, puffff, it turns off and the HD was smoking, I took the card and the HD out and the computer still runs fine .
But I can't see nothing wrong on the HD. Repair or buy another?
Here some pics.
Sorry for my english and my newbieness.
Best regards,
