Hi Bill and anyone else interested.
Yes siree, that was the problem. After futzing around with this I noticed
that the LED on the host would stay on all the time. Then the Zip, piece of
crap that it is but that is another story, didn't show up in the BIOS scan.
So I disconnected the 50 pin, installed one Seagate, low level formatted
(55min), and shazzam, all is installed. I then changed jumpers and installed
the second Seagate, LL format, and then with Partition Magic 5 I created a
200 MB FAT 32 partition for my swap file. I'll do the IBM tomorrow.

I still have one hiccup, and that is that the swap partition still shows up
as 0MB free, with a 0 minimum, 2147483647 maximum in the Virtual memory
dialog set up. Got an idea on that? As of now, I have a 200MB DOS partition
on the first that holds DOS 6.22 with System Commander, then a 2GB FAT16 for
Windows, and a 2GB FAT 32 Apps partition. Apparently I'll have to jump
through some hoops to convert the Windows to FAT32 with System Commander.
Could that be the problem with the swap partition on the second drive?

My scanner Cable is from HP and cost almost as much as a Granite. I had
planned on some day getting a separate controller for the Fast devices, I
guess that day is here sooner. I also ordered a Turbo Cool 350 ATX from
PC,P&C.
Thanks again so very much.
