I know that IDE and SCSI controller and drives can co-exist on the same system as many of you have done so. What I like to know is do I have to disable the primary BIOS or secondary one or none ? Currently, my IDE controller is on a multi-io local bus card with ET4000 as well. And IDE and 2 floppies drives are taken care of by the IDE controller, however, I have just got hold of my longing SCSI-2 Micropolis drive (M2112), and I am using 1542c. But I have got no manual at all for both hardware. ALl I can see are many switches/jumpers on the drive as well as on 1542c. Can someone who has successfully configure such a system before kindly mail me some useful notes/guidelines/tips/hints etc! Many thanks in advance! - wongm@latcs1.lat.oz.au (M.C Wong) -- - wongm@latcs1.lat.oz.au
