One useful bit of info I found on the net said that if
it doesn't seem
to spin up, remove the card and bounce it drive end down on something
like the sole of your shoe. I tried that and now it seems to spin up
and boot to DOS. Usual stiction issue I guess.
Yes, but with all of mine that died, it wasn't stiction -- I could
hear/feel it spin up but there was no firmware left on the card to drive it.
