New subject: Everex EV-831
I've tried to find DOS drivers for this QIC-36 card, but as yet to no avail.
Could someone give me an idea on where to find one ? I've only seen some
Unix and BSD drivers.
Any ehlp would be appreciated

there weren't a lot of dos drivers for the 831. The everex backup and restore
program pretty much was the way that you used the tape drive under DOS.
I don't recall if everex made available drivers, or if you had to come by them
on your own.

Fortunately, I used to run that setup in an old system I once had. I just sent Nico some
ZIPfiles from my archives that should do the trick.
Yes, Everex did, at one time, provide drivers. However, the tape software manufacturers,
such as Sydex and Mountain, also incorporated such into their backup software.
I'm glad I've turned into such a pack rat... It's amazing what can help
someone out these days...

If that's the board I think it is, then it's actually ISA->QIC02 and
QIC02->QIC36 interfaces on the same board. There's a tiny QIC02 bus in
there...
The design of the QIC02->QIC36 part is _very_ similar to a standalone
QIC02->QIC36 interface I have -- I think it's badged Wangtek. I used that
on my PERQ for a time, after patching the EPROM so that it defaulted to
QIC11 format (whcih is what the PERQ distribution tapes are).
