Compaq 7790DMT compact flash adapter problems
Hi, I have a Compaq 7790DMT and I'm trying to use CF cards as a storage solution. When I do this however, I get weird errors. After formatting the drive (with either a modern computer or the MS DOS format tool) some letters in the volume name are off. In the image of this post, the volume name is supposed to be "COMPAQ" but instead it's "CNMPAP".
Googling around says it could be the adapter I'm using, but I don't know where I would obtain a "better" adapter. It's a 44 pin IDE to CF card adapter. Adapter link.
Really unsure where to go from here. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance to everyone who trys to help.
