I do have a bootable system disk in the transdrive (A:) but it has no effect. 
The access light doesn't even light up.  I am thinking either the connector or
ribbon cable is bad.  I have no way to check out the transdrives.  Is there a
convertor cable that will allow me to hook the DB19 cable to a external disk
port on an MS DOS machine.  The ones I saw looked like 24/25 pin connectors for
ext drives.
