 | How'd you get your Promise Ultra66 to work? (modified 0 times) | Brian|S| | |
| I believe I've noticed that a few people on this board are using the Promise Ultra66 IDE controller. I picked up one of these yesterday. Great part is, that I will be able to cram this and the ISA 10BT card together in the shared slots. However, I've having a difficult time getting the Promise to work with the onboard sound. The following situation happened on both a clean 98se install, as well as an old one. With the Promise card in the system, whether or not running with the included drivers or as 'standard pci ide controller', when I install the audio drivers by removing the 'unknown device' and then installing the driver for the 'audio device', and rebooting, everything is detected and the audio drivers are installing when the system hangs. This will then occur everytime I startup Win98. If you guys can at least confirm that you've got the Ultra66 controller working on the websurfer under win98, I'd be content. I simply don't have the time to start trying new configurations and reinstalling windows. If you can also outline the steps you took when setting up all of your drivers and such, it'd be much appreciated. Also, I couldn't get the Promise to boot until I disabled the USB ports. Is there any way around this? Thanks again guys...
