I vaguely remember reading that there were some incompatibility issues with Maxtor's DiamondMax 10 and certain mobos...

Can anyone give me any idea what this version won't work with?

Just to adjust a clerical error, and some comments.

Of course, it's nForce4 (I got the 4 right).

Shame on the nVidia engineers for making this installation transition a complete mess. Their inf file doesn't tell XP how to install the Sata driver properly, within the Sata raid folder. And, they haven't gotten the drivers "signed" yet; so the install process doesn't trust them - and substitutes xp-ide drivers.

The inf from the Legacy folder does. What idiot figured that that would work?

Thanks to a student by the name of Dino Nuhagic (nuhi) of "nLite" fame, and Fernando 1, from MSFN, for working through nVidias incompetency on this.
