PC-Task 4.4 Problems: Hard Disk C: file disappeared
« on: October 27, 2006, 06:19:14 PM »
I need some help on this one:

Awhile back, I ordered the Fast ATA 1200 MK-III HD Disk Controller from Elbox.  I was looking to speed up burning CDs, especially, which it does nicely, because my image files are almost always located on my hard drive.

Well, I also got Subway USB at around the same time.

I installed them both together, since I figured I would have my A1200 open only once for both.

I then bought myself a USB multiple card reader (for reading SD cards, CF cards, et al).

I have Poseidon 3.3 installed and registered for a full unlimited single ownership key.

I needed to install MSH to be able to read the CF & SD cards in the USB multiple card read.

After all this was done, I happened to go into PC-Task.  It could not find my hard drive C: file with Windows 95B.

My question is this:
1)Did MSH mess this up?  How do I recover?  Do I need to recreate my C: drive??
2)Maybe the Fast ATA 1200 MK-III also has something to do with this because the hard disk controller that accesses the partition on my HD is different than what PC-Task is coded for to interface with the Commodore controller?

Bottom line - can someone help me out?  Thanks in advance.

My C: drive is a dedicated partition on my hard drive, not a hard drive file.

& now that I think of it, I'm not sure whether I used MSH or FAT95.  It's almost been a year now.  I'll have to check sometime this Sunday.
