2). Support Feature

	The filter driver works with Microsoft Default IDE Driver to fix some capability issues. 
	It will enhance system stability.
	The performance of Win98/ME will be enhanced with our special feature. 
	For windows 2000 and XP, it extend the system capability to support ATA100/133.
	
	Support transfer mode:
	- PIO Mode 0/1/2/3/4
	- Single Word DMA 0/1/2
	- Multiword DMA 0/1/2
	- Ultra DMA Mode 0/1/2/3/4/5/6 (ATA 33/66/100/133)
	
	Especially For Windows 2000, the filter driver will provide the feature for ATA100 hardisk.
	> Windows 2000 candidate version(5.0.2195.0)
		If you only install Windows 2000 candidate version, the MS IDE Driver limit the 
		ATA100 feature and only support up to ATA66. It will switch the operation mode from ATA100 
		mode to PIO mode. After Installing Filter Driver, the operation mode of ATA100 device will 
		be decreased to ATA66 only, not to PIO mode. So does the ATA133 devices meet the situation.

	> Windows 2000 candidate version plus Service Pack 2
		If you install Windows 2000 Service Pack2, the MS IDE Driver begin to support ATA100 feature.
		The ATA100 devices could work with ATA100 mode really.
		The ATA133 devices still work with ATA100 mode only.
