I recently got a Tandy 1000 with a 3.5 and 5.25 inch drives. The 5.25 drive loads fine, however when I try to use the 3.5 inch drive, the directory listings are just garbage. What could this be?
I also want to install MS-DOS 5 as I have 640K of RAM, but there's a problem. MS DOS 5 requires a previous version of DOS to be installed. I have no HDD in the Tandy, just a few that I could install. My version of DOS 3.1 is on a 5.25 disk, and my question is that could I install a 5.25 drive and a HDD at the same time or will there be no room? I only plan on keeping the 5.25 drive/HDD setup for as long as it takes to format the drive and install DOS 3.1 on it, after which I will change it to 3.5 drive/HDD setup.
