Thanks Dan,
I feel a bit silly, but it was late last night is my excuse.
"DECpc 320P" in Google gave a link to floppy images on a COMPAQ site.
I will try them this evening, but it is good to know that the DECpc
"knows" a limited number of hard disks. If I can 'upgrade' to some
300 Mb of the 420 Mb capacity it is still better than the 40 Mb that
I have available at this point.
If none of the drive types in the BIOS are a close match for the HDD you
want to use you could use a disk manager.
From memory they are still available on the Maxtor and
Seagate websites,
but of course those version only work with Maxtor/Seagate HDDs.
There were
commercial versions that weren't restricted to specific HDDs, but I
wouldn't know where to find them.
I've used them before when I've had no other option, they work ok with
DOS/Win9x, no idea about other OS's.
