I just bought a gigabyte GA-7VRXP Motherboard and Maxtor 60GB ATA133 HDD.
Aim is to use the Promis MBUltra133 PDC20276 controller to get fastest performance from hard drive but the driver installation process is not as described in the manual - it uses the Promise RAID controller and describes updating the SCSI controllers drivers.
On POST the system displays the following:
----------------
MBUltra133 (PDC20276) (tm) BIOS Version 2.20.1.12
(c) 199-2001 Promise technology Inc all rights reserved
Detecting... (and then obviously fails)
MBUltra133 (PDC20276) BIOS is not installed because there are no drives attached.
----------------
followed by a normal boot up of WIN2000.
Tried installing hardware thro system and "got" the SCSI controller looking same as manual in device manager but receive the same message on boot...
gigabyte and maxtor marketing sites are not much help - any ideas anyone?
Any suggestions would be really appreciated.
Thanks
