No, the BIOS has entries for four drives and they're all set to No Drive

This PC is an IPC Pentium 90, by the way, and the only drives mentioned in
the BIOS boot sequence options are A: and C:, but it was running Windows 95
until a couple of days ago and that was booting from one of the SCSI drives.
