Hello Folks,
Got a new desktop from Dell (Vostro). Looking at the BIOS is only lists
one drive letter (A) and just has the 3-1/2" option. Does this mean it
can only run one floppy drive and it must be 3-1/2"?
I wanted to put two in there, one being the lone 5-1/2" I've got so I
can retire the old machine. Once in a blue moon a client wants me to
redesign something from the ice age and often there is stuff on those
old floppies. Which of course I then dutifully carry over onto a CD.
Also, does anyone know the Foxconn G33M02 motherboard that's in those
machines? Foxconn only has the specs for the G33M which is grossly
different. Beats me why. Anyhow, I wanted to run LPT and RS232 off of
there (guess I can forget that one...) and figure out whether it can
drive two VGA monitors. The "documentation" that Dell furnished online
this time was, to say it politely, mighty disappointing. Writing to OEM
suppliers has never yielded much.
