Has anybody made this card work with MS-DOS 6.22 and Win 3.1 via those CF to IDE 44pin adapters ? 😊

Thanks for info 😊

I've used a SanDisk Ultra II 2GB compact flash just fine with a 430VX motherboard in the past, but these things have a ton of counterfeits and revisions so you have to just try regardless.
