32-Bit Disk Access and Microsolutions Compaticard (84724)

This article was previously published under Q84724

The 32-bit disk access feature of Microsoft Windows version 3.1 may not work with the Microsolutions Compaticard.

The Compaticard model 4 meets the 32-bit disk access requirements because it is Western Digital (WD) 1003 compatible. However, the Compaticard allows you to attach either external or internal floppy disk drives to your system. It has its own built-in BIOS that alters the I/O address.

If you remove this BIOS, 32-bit disk access should work fine.

For additional information on configuring the Compaticard, please contact Microsolutions.

Compaticard is manufactured by a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
