Hello all again, I finally got my vital parts for the 486 build, but I'm running into a road block. I tried to get the floppy drive going but it won't read disk. I tested two floppy drives a few cables on the io card that is have (its using vesa bus.) Ive tested said floppies drives and cables on to a different machine and both work fine. on the io card, It will detect and spin the floppy disk but as I said It won't read. Which Its possible that the io card or motherboard could be defective or I'm not setting something right. the disk do work on the other machine. the board I"m using a pc chips m912 and the io card is a data technology 2270vl. the boot i'm using is a windows 98 boot disk for testing.
