No success. I found it on my MSI MS-5120 board - a routine in BIOS is called which simply sets one PCI configuration register. On that board (Mercury/Kobian KOB 630e FSFx), there is much more complicated routine, which accesses some undocumented ports $2E and $2F... I tried to do the same thing in U...

720KB drive? That's hard-to-get thing... I have one (at least I think that it's 720KB) in Didaktik D80 floppy system (Didaktik is clone of ZX-Spectrum computer made in Slovakia).
