I am having a problem with getting a MB and hardrive working on my TC-22.
I have a used 486 motherboard for the machine and a used harddrive
I have the system setup out of the machine where I can work with it.
I have formated the drive and fixdisked it to 503 mb.
Made a dos partition and made it active .
I loaded dos 6.0 with no problems,all three disks loaded fine but the system
will hang on bootup at:
384 K Shadow Ram
Starting MS DOS
I can change the boot order to a then c and boot from a dos bootdisk then go back and forth from a: to c: and even c:dos .
If I do a ver: it shows 6.0.
I can do a directory of c:dos and see all files so I know dos is loaded to the c drive.
I seem to be missing maybe boot files on c: or something to the that effect.
There must be a reason that the c drive wont boot.
Not sure what files I may need to add or move to the root directory of c to get it to boot.
This is about all I know of dos so stuck here.
Should there be a boot sector with boot files on c:?
Sledge hammer is next step.
Also will a 386 mother board work in a TC-22?
I have a motherboard and hardrive from a vx2t that I know is good I could use.
I know I am close with the 486 board once I solve my boot problem.
I have a backup of my original hardrive that i can copy the dx32 files from
to the new harddrive once I solve this problem
This is probably a issue several have been threw before.
Thanks to all
