Hello,
I have soldered two new XTIDE rev. 2s. I set the I/O address to 340h. I used the ROM of my rev. 1 to test the two boards. Of course I set the two jumpers for latency mode. The RS-232 parts are not installed.
What do I see? The ROM starts up and says it starts checking for address 340h. Within a fraction of a second it says there is no HDD present. If I change the I/O address or set the card in rev 2 mode, it takes seconds before the ROM reports there is no HDD present.
Am I overlooking something or doing something wrong? Is there a way to test the interface?
Thanks for any advise!
