: Hi All,

: Can anyone give me the correct debug lowlevel format command and parametersor is there a generic lowlevel format utility I can use?
: Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

You need to boot off a floppy with debug.exe on it. Then:

Q4) How do I access the BIOS on an UltraStor card?

A4) To invoke the on-board BIOS utility, after a full system bootup to DOS
operating system, use the DOS "DEBUG" program to access the BIOS utility:

a. Load the DEBUG program by typing

DEBUG after the DOS prompt ( ">" sign )

b. Once in the DEBUG program, following the prompt ( "-" sign ), type

g=c800:5 (or whatever BIOS address the board is jumpered to.)
