>>Can anyone give me a clue on this one. On a machine configured to dual boot for either Win95 or NT Server 4.0 when in NT the floppy drives are not accessable, but under 95 they are. When doing a DSKCHK in a command window under NT a message is returned "The type of the file system is RAW" and fails. Is there somewhere to configure the drives for FAT?

Turns out that our T1000 Colorado tape drive (floppy cable connected) worked well on all OS's except from NT, and all floppies worked well under all OS's including NT, until we loaded the actual Tape Drive software itself into NT itself. Then the floppies access disappeared.

It turned out to be a flacky controller card/cable. We replaced them and now all is fine.
