HDD on Promise ultra 133
Posted by Andrea on May 13th, 2006


Just installed HDD 160Gb Maxtor on Promise ultra 133 TX2. The HDD is listed
in Device Manager it's visible on SIW too, but I do not have access to it to
format and assign a device letter. WXP SP2 on DFI AD70 Sc MB.
Any help? Thanks a lot,
Andrea

Did you install the Promise drives that came with the card?

Yes and flashed the bios too. I solved using Control Panel...Disk Managment.
The HDD works, but is seen as "Volume" and I cannot make partitions. I was
able to trasfer files to it and read from it.
It's ok this way unless you have some more hints.
