I now tried something different. I issued a "format track command"

issued the format track command.


Okay, this is not getting results. I believe that a long way back in the thread that you said that only one drive make+model exhibited this issue--other drives worked fine.

Right now, I can't find the post where you specified the drive. Who knows--I might have one.

Western Digital Caviar 31600 it is.

I'm waiting for a 32Port-LA (might take up to a month). When it is there
I'll continue debugging that issue and see what a MS-DOS does different
from what I do.
