I have a WD1002A-WX1 disk controller card and an ST-225 that, by all accounts, ought to work on my MS-6119 motherboard, of 1998 vintage, running a PII, Windows98 at 350Mhz. (It has 3 ISA sockets as well as PCI, card takes up the first section of the ISA socket)
The usual thing, to bring up the low-level format program on the controller card, is to type G=C800:5. I've also gone through the variations: G=CA800:5; G=CC00:5 & G=CE00:5. But, all I get is a blinking cursor, not the output or a message from the formatting program.
The card and HDD did last work when it was in an AMSTRAD 1512, years ago.
Anyone know why DEBUG would not run the formatting program in the card? TIA.
