I have a Compacq Deskpro running W98 with 128 RAM
It runs a Dos Software for a restaurant called MOO
It has a problem seeing the ghost drive, CD Rom Drive, an external Omega 100 MB
Drive used for backups
It has 2 ide hard drives,(maybe 1 with 2 partions?), a CD Rom Drive, a 100mb External
Zip Drive, and a 3.5 floppy.
Fixed drives are C: 6150 4098 free 33%used & D: 29325 27280bfree 7%used

Currect fixed Disk Drive 1
C: 1 partition non dos

D: 1 partition pri Dos Ghost Drive 2045 Mbytes Fat 16
4 files in 0 directories

~~~~~~~~~~
Device manager only shows C: and D: With error looking at the D: drive properties...
nor will it run chkdsk or scandisk on D:
I get the error... Processing can not continue. File allocation table bad.
An error has occured...but the correct message could not be found.
F10 Setup Shows D: but does not show numbers for Cly, sectors, volume, etc... just
size
It Sees all these details for C: fine
DMA controller test failed?
not getting any BIOS Audio Beep Errors and Messages, but a Compaq OEM Diagonestic
Testing program found...
1) Processor failed DMA Controller Test
2) Com2 modem Failed the internal test timed out waiting for SYNC
Im thinking I should remove everything except C: and then add drives 1 at a time
to see if they are seen...
Cd and Zip have power
