Hi Brian
Did you change the jumper settings?. I will have to check if there's a auto detect on the EIII and get back to you. Have you tried contacting Rob on the Emu Archive  site? He's the man who can really guide you.
Cheers,

Colin

  I've tried to set the HD to ID 1 and 4 without any boot success. When 
  I set the ID to 1 or 4 the EIII waits 3 or 4 times longer before it 
  proceds scanning the scsi chain. I've tried with 2 different Seagate 
  ST51080N hd's which should work with the keyboard, but not in my 
  case. I then tried to install one of the ST51080N disks in a EIIIx 
  (modul) with success. In the EIIIx the hd boots as it should.

  When I insert the original 43 Mb hd in the EIII the EIII will boot.

  I can't figure this out.....

  Thanx for helping out

  Brian
