So i been playing around with a 286 board that had missing cpu and memory, cpu has been added ans sipp memory's.

I have no issue using a 5.25" 1.2Mb drive on the computer, i have the option for 3.5" 1.44Mb in the bios but i cant get it to work, i have tried 3 diffrent floppy controllers and floppy drives that i know is working and i still cant get any 3.5" 1.44Mb floppy drives to work.

is the same board that root42 found but he sadly have not come around to that project yet 😀 the board pictures can be found on his topic Identification of 286 motherboard

here is a picture of the bios, might be bios that needs a update?
