Yeah I knew that much but it was Charles Angelich that gave
me the motivation to check out the drive ribbon cable.
Turned out to be the cable.
Good thing I'd saved the 6.4 Gig Quantum drive as
I slapped it back in and up came Win 98 just as I'd configured it!
Now I need to slip the tiny Seagate drive with Win 3.1 into an old
486 but that'll have to wait a bit as I've all sorts of stuff
to move and reconfigure to get it back up.
