It would cost $85.00 to get it fixed, versus $50.00 for a new one at ELEK-TEK. (If anyone wants it, I'll let it go rather cheap.) Msg 43250 is 13 line(s) on 02/20/90 from GERALD PINE to BILL MATTSON re: R/8-INCH DRIVE JUMPER SETTINGS What I have is an 820-II, Bill. I'm not totally familiar with the history, but I believe that the -II was the upgrade. The original 820 (820-I ?) had only single sided diskettes, but mine came with a Shugart 851 double sided drive and a 10 meg hard drive. The 851 works fine in double sided mode. Since I raised my first question, another friend, Ed Fanta, gave me some tips on his setup with the same drives. I've had partial additional success. The machine now recognizes and formats both sides of the diskette with the Mitsubishi drives, but the LED stays on after the drive is accessed, and I cannot remove the diskette from the drive witho ut shutting off the machine. Obviously, I'm not there yet. One can only take so much of the old routine without a break (install, check, remove, c change jumpers, reinstall, .). I'm taking my break and hoping that my comments will ring a bell with someone. Thanks for your interest.

Kevin Msg 43258 is 12 line(s) on 02/21/90 from COLIN SCHROEDER to ERIC BOHLMAN re: R/YOUR WP PROBLEM Thanks for the info.-I knew anything like that would be tricky at best! I'm not about to mess around with programs like QEMM, etc., because I doubt that they provide explicit functions like that. Isn't video RAM mapped to specific system addresses? My impression is that's what happens-and if so, rerouting should work. Or is it that the mapping registers you referred to have special mapping functions for video writes?? I must confess relative ignorance about CPU registers. I'm starting to get into asm programming, in part instigated by this problem and my stubbornness, and I'd like to at least try to 'fix' this. I'll keep reading and toying with it, and if you get a sudden revelation, let me know! Thanks again!

Msg 43260 is 10 line(s) on 02/21/90 from BILL MATTSON to GERALD PINE re: R/8-INCH DRIVE JUMPER SETTINGS I don't have docs on the 851 drive, but on the 800/801 drives there are a pair of jumpers (or traces) labelled Z and Y. The drives were shipped (usually) with Z jumpered and Y open. This combo meant the in use LED was lit by drive select, and the reverse, Y jumpered, Z open meant the LED lit feom head load (HD LD). On the surface of it this would not explain the problem, but only point at a symptom if the LED stays lit also. However, you might try these two jumpers (if they are also on the 851 too), just to see. There may also be some "door open/ door closed" drive select logic in there too. If you have the docs, check this area. Regards. Msg 43261 is 09 line(s) on 02/22/90 from ERIC BOHLMAN to COLIN SCHROEDER re: R/YOUR WP PROBLEM The 386 mapping registers control what PHYSICAL address gets selecte when the processor tries to access a LOGICAL address. For example, an EGA card will always have memory at physical address A0000 hex, i.e. whenever an address in that range appears on the bus, the card's memory gets selected. The mapping registers could be set so that when the processor tries to access B0000 hex (where a Hercules card's memory normally goes), A0000 would go out on the bus, thereby rerouting an attempted write to the Hercules over to the EGA. The real situation is a bit more complicated, but. dup. chars. >Function:?
