Here is what we got:
------------------------------
-Windows 98SE
------------------------------
-AMD AthlonC
------------------------------
-Hercules Game Theater XP
------------------------------
-512MB PC133
------------------------------
ASUS A7V133
4 IDE ports, 2 RAID/UDMA100 and 2 UDMA100
------------------------------
-MAXTOR 15GB 7200rpm
Master on RAID port 1 @ UDMA 100
------------------------------
-MAXTOR 30GB 7200rpm
Master on Raid port 2 @ UDMA 100
------------------------------
-TDK 16/10/40X writer
Master on IDE port 1 @ PIO mode 4
------------------------------
-KENWOOD 72x True-X CD-ROM
Master on IDE port 2 @ UDMA/33
------------------------------
-PIONEER 16x DVD
Slave on IDE port 2 @ UDMA/33
------------------------------
Everything works great except for the Kenwood 72x. When I enable DMA on it, I reboot and everything seems to work fine. However, when I try to do anything with it it locks up. For instance, starting Max Payne with the Kenwood will lock up the system, burning a CD being read from the Kenwood will lock up the system, ripping a CD will lock up the system, you get the idea Also, just accessing the drive through Windows Explorer seems rather slow, like its not transfering right. When the system does lock up, for instance with Max Payne, the hard drive light will get stuck on. Its as if right when the drive tried to access the cdrom, it froze.
Yes I've updated my drivers/4-1/bios/firmware, switched the cables around, you name it I've tried it. I really love this drive, but I need to figure this out. Hell, even with DMA turned off it seems very slow (although that could be a result of DMAbeing turned off
I would GREATLY appreciate any help you can give. I've tried all I can think of and nothing works. I would like to keep this drive but not if its nothing more than a bay filler
THANKS!
