subject: XT HD controller

LS> TO> I am looking for a HDD controller to suit the following:
LS> TO> Miniscribe HDD. It is used on an XT system belonging to a
LS> TO> friend of mine. The Hard drive is an XT only drive but was
LS> TO> unable to locate exact model , heads 2, byte offset from
LS> TO> index 2907. I believe the problem to be the controller but
LS> TO> I'm not sure as it comes up with a code of 1701 after the
LS> TO> RAM countdown during boot-up, the Dard-drive appears to be
LS> TO> whirring quite nicely thank you but is not being
LS> TO> acknowledged as being there. Does anyone have a harddrive
LS> TO> controller for one of these or can help with some useful 

I have 2 XT 8 bit harddrive controller cards here for sale
If you still need them.

Though I think the dreaded 1701 message means you have your self a 
doorstop now and not a hard drive
