Okay, reporting back.. I got the new adapter today. That did the trick! I used GDISK to partition, and then set up DOS 6.22 with no problems at all. So, most likely a bad (or picky?) unit I had. Like I mentioned earlier, I will try the SLC CF card in the old adapter, when I get it. I don't expect it …

It can't be a cable problem, as the adapter plugs directly into the IDE port. 😀 Yes, I will follow up on this. And thank you for all your suggestions. 😉

No, I don't need EZ-Drive. :) But I tend to use it, because I think it's simple and fast. I disable the EZ BIOS (or whatever it's called..?) after the partitioning. FDISK? Sure, so I just tried good old FDISK from the 6.22 install disks (also did an /MBR). Like GDISK, it reports no errors while " …

I use EZ-Drive 9.06w to partition drives. But the 2GB card is detected as …

Thank you for all your answers, nice people. :) Going for a third party command was a nice idea! I found one called 'editvar' which just works beautifully. That is so awesome, thank you! :) But, man.. Next problem.. Checking if the entered number is within 1-100.. Am I missing something, or can MS- …

Hello good people, New user here. :) Just built myself a nice DOS rig (PentiumMMX-233, S3 Trio64V+, AWE-32, 64mb). I run a pure MS-DOS 6.22 environment. I am using .bat files to launch my games (audio volume, mouse sensitivity, etc.). A new game I added runs too fast, and I have to slow the machine …
