          Greetings,

          I need help installing a 730k 3.5" DS/DD drive in an IBM-AT.

          I purchased an IBM 3.5"  drive for installation in an IBM-AT.
          After completing the hardware and software installation and
          running Setup I ended up with a disk drive that will read from
          and write to a 3.5" floppy but will not format the disks.
          I get a Track 0 unreadable - disk unusable error.
          Luckily I am able to format the disks on a Toshiba T1000 and
          then use them in the IBM-AT.

          Any ideas? 

          BTW I got two responses to my last request for assistance in
          getting a DS/DD drive operating in another AT and with these
          I was able to get the drive working.

          Thanks,
          Todd Seeleman
