This article was previously published under Q78445 SUMMARY
Pacific Rim Systems has confirmed that MS-DOS 5.0 and later versions may incorrectly
attempt to format a 3.5-inch disk as a 5.25-inch disk on their external
floppy disk drives for the IBM PS/2 series of computers.
A possible solution to this problem is to use the MS-DOS DRIVPARM command
and the DRIVER.SYS utility.
