I'm attempting to set up multiple floppy controllers in a 486 build, but I can't get it working.
I have an unknown brand floppy/IDE/IO controller card in the machine which works fine for the CD-ROM, HDD and two floppy drives.
However, I would like to add another floppy controller for another floppy drive.
I'm not entirely sure how to do this, though I've read that it is possible.
Currently, I can't get any further than a Hard Disk Failure (80) (Or something similar) error.
Or the third floppy drive I'm trying to add will try to read/seek when A or B does.
I've tried a few different configurations but haven't gotten anything working.
I'm sure someone here knows a lot more about this than I do.
The controller card I'm trying to add is a Western Digital WD1600v-SR2 bearing a copyright year of 1987.
I'm fairly certain this is a 16 bit controller.
