LARGE IDE FIXED DISK DRIVE (>528MB) SUPPORT BY THE DRIVER * **************************************************************************** Intel recommends that the "Auto" mode of disk recognition should be used in most systems' BIOS setup option when installing new disk drives. Some older systems may not support the large disk drives because of BIOS limitations. Users are encouraged to contact their system provider for the system or BIOS upgrade before installing the Intel driver for large drive support. Intel PIIX Bus Master IDE driver for Windows 95* supports the following fixed disk geometry translation mechanisms. Do not install the Intel driver if the system does not support them or the drive is not configured to use them. - Standard Cylinder-Head-Sector (CHS) translation in BIOS - Logical Block Addressing (LBA) mode - BIOS Disk Services INT13h, Function 08h to report the drive geometry parameters The Intel PIIX Bus Master IDE driver for Windows 95* does not support the certain disk geometry translation mechanisms. The user should use the default Microsoft Windows 95* IDE driver if the system uses the following translation mechanisms. - All other BIOS translation schemes not supported by the driver. - Any software translation mechanisms, such as Ontrack Disk Manager*, EZ-Drive*, or master boot record hooking. **************************************************************************** * 8D. RELEASE-SPECIFIC TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION * **************************************************************************** Verifying the installation of the driver and other generic troubleshooting is discussed in the "TROUBLESHOOTING" section above. This section describes release-specific troubleshooting. This section contains a list of known problems with certain system configurations discovered during testing of the driver. A list of all storage devices tested with the driver is given below in the "RELEASE TESTING INFORMATION" section of this document. If the solution given to any of the problems listed below is to de-install the driver, follow the de-installation instructions outlined above in the "DE-INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE" section. In general, if the system fails to operate reliably, the recommendation is to de-install the PIIX Bus Master driver. Q1> Windows 95* doesn't recognize or see CD-ROM drive on the secondary IDE interface after system is restarted. A1> Some ATAPI CD-ROM drives may need to be placed on the same cable, as a slave, to a Hard Disk drive, which is configured as a Master. Below is a list of some CD-ROM drives that meet this requirement. Generally, with the exception of the devices listed below, the recommended configuration for a single ATAPI CD-ROM drive on a cable is as a Master. Mitsumi* FX400 NEC* CDR251 Toshiba* XM5302B Sony* CDU55E NEC* CDR261 Toshiba* XM5602B Sony* CDU76E NEC* CDR271 Torisan* CDR-C3G NEC* CDR272 Torisan* CDR-S1G NEC* CDR273 Q2> There is an Exclamation(!) or Question(?) mark next to the primary or secondary IDE controller instance under Device Manager where devices are connected. -OR- The secondary IDE controller instance is missing under Device Manager and devices are connected to this cable. A2> There are several possible causes for this issue: 1. Your CD-ROM drive may need be configurated as a slave drive. Please refer to Item A1 for a detailed description. 2. There is a hardware conflict in the system. Only TWO IDE channels are allowed in a system. The driver will not operate on systems that have a non-Intel IDE controller or a sound card with an IDE interface. The driver should not be de-installed on these systems. 3. The system BIOS may not have initialized the 82371xB IDE controller properly. Again, please contact your system provider for BIOS upgrade. If the system fails to operate reliably, de-install the driver. Q3> The system does not operate reliably or fails to boot when the driver is installed. -OR- The system fails to boot in NORMAL (non SAFE-MODE) mode when the driver is installed. A3> Please de-install the driver. Please make sure that your system meets the system requirements of the driver and you don't have any non- supported IDE devices or applications installed on the system. Please refer to the Release Notes section for supported devices and applications. Q4> One or more of the IDE/ATAPI drives on the system fail to perform correctly and/or is not recognized by the driver. A4> Ensure devices on the system are connected according to the manufacturers' documentation. Please make sure that you don't have any non-supported IDE devices or applications installed on the system. Please refer to the release note for supported devices and applications. If the system fails to operate reliably, de-install the driver. Q5> The CD-ROM drive fails to perform correctly after the driver has been installed (e.g. audio CD-ROMs or some advanced CD-ROM applications don't operate correctly). A5> Please ensure that ONLY supported IDE devices or applications are installed on the system. Please refer to the release note for supported devices and applications. A conflict between the PIIX Bus Master IDE driver and a DOS real-mode ATAPI CD-ROM device driver may have occurred. This conflict occurs when both the real-mode driver and the PIIX Bus Master IDE driver attempt to access the resources of the PIIX controller. If the drive fails to operate in the case that there is NO real-mode driver for the device is installed, de-install the driver. If the system fails to operate reliably, de-install the driver. Q6> The driver does not support the following CD-ROM drives. Gallant GCD-R542B Mitsumi FX400 Torisan S1G Torisan C3G Toshiba XM-5302B Wearnes CDD-220 Wearnes CDD-620 Wearnes CDD-820 A6> Do not install the driver on a system equipped with these CD-ROM drives. There are no plans to support these drives with the PIIX Bus Master driver. Q7> The driver does not support the following fixed disk drives: Conner CFA850A Maxtor 71626A Maxtor 71260AT A7> Do not install the driver on a system equipped with these fixed disk drives. There are no plans to support these drives with the PIIX Bus Master driver. Q8> Windows 95 fails to report the actual size of the drive. -OR- Data loss or system hang has occurred after installing the PIIX Bus Master driver. A8> If your disk drive is > 528MB, you should check and compare the capacity of the drive before and after installing PIIX Bus Master IDE driver. If the system fails to operate reliably, de-install the driver. It is recommended to de-install the system in Safe mode: Press the "F8" function key when you see "Starting Windows 95"; Select "Safe mode"; and de-install the Intel driver after the system has re-booted. Q9> How can I play MS-DOS based CD-ROM games? -OR- I could not access my CD-ROM drive in MS-DOS real mode. A9> Your CD-ROM drive is not available in MS-DOS mode because CD-ROM real-mode driver is not loaded. There is a conflict between Intel PIIX Bus Master IDE driver and a DOS real-mode ATAPI CD-ROM device driver. This conflict occurs when both the real-mode driver and the PIIX Bus Master IDE driver attempt to access the resources of the PIIX controller. To workaround the issue, you can create a custom startup configuration that loads CD-ROM real-mode driver. The game will run in exclusive MS-DOS mode using its own MS-DOS configuration. To Create a Exclusive MS-DOS Mode For MS-DOS CD-ROM Games: 1. Right-click the game's executable file in My Computer 2. Click on Properties 3. Click on Advanced... 4. In the Advanced dialog box, click on MS-DOS mode 5. Select "Specify a new MS-DOS configuration" to edit the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files. 6.
