Alcohol 120% + 1st HDD SATA + 2nd HDD IDE0 + XP SP2 == dis..

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.gigabyte (More info?)

It is long known that Alcohol 120 and other apps that use the same driver
have such problems.
It was often stated on the XP beta news groups that one should de-install
these apps prior to attempting an SP2 install.

The only suggestion I can make is to hunt down an update for the affected
applications.
