486-DX-66 with Maxtor Hardrive
When I turn computer on it goes through the post and hangs. Sometimes it
say can"t acess Hard drive and at other times its say its a controller
problem. When I boot and it hangs because of the "Can't acesss hard
drive" I can use a boot disk and go to the A-prompt. when I try to acess
C it say "Bad Command"

I have reseated the cables and the I/o controller card. I also went into
setup and automatically found the hard drive and acepted its findings
into CMOS. I plan to try new cables. What else can I do to try and acess
the harddrive?
Thanks
