Hard Disk Problems

If you are having problems with the hard disk in your computer,

you may see one of the following error messages:

❏ 1760

Disk 0 parameter failure

❏ 1761

Disk 1 parameter failure

❏ 1770

Disk 0 parameter error

❏ 1771

Disk 1 parameter error

❏ 1780 Disk 0 failure

❏ 1781 Disk 1 failure

❏ 1782 Disk controller failure

❏ 1790 Disk 0 error

❏ 1791 Disk 1 error.

Try the following steps:

1.

Be sure you have installed MS-DOS on the hard disk as

described in the MS-DOS Installation Guide.

2.

Did you enter an incorrect hard disk drive type when you

ran the Setup program? Check the hard disk drive type table

in Chapter 2 for a list of the types available. If you entered

user-defined parameters to configure your hard disk, see the
documentation that came with your hard disk to ensure that

you use the correct parameters.

3.

If you have installed MS-DOS on the hard disk but it does

not load MS-DOS when you turn on the computer, it may
be missing one of the MS-DOS system files. Turn off your

computer and insert your Startup diskette into drive A.

Then turn on your computer again.
