******** 160G DD on PCI + W95 + Pentium??

Hi all,

On an old Pentium 200Mhz of 1997 under W95 (W95 is on
a DD on the internal IDE bus), I am trying to install

(1) an auxiliary Connectland Ultra ATA/IDE PCI
Controler card (Ultra DMA & RAID)

carrying

(2) a Hitachi 160G Deckstar ATA/IDE hard disk
connected to the card (1).

Here's the problem. I cannot find a W95 driver to read
the disk (2). The W95 drivers on the minidisk
accompanying item (1) do not load. So the Hitachi DD
remains inaccessible.

Howerever all is OK under W2000 so it is a W95 problem.

QUESTION. Can you confirm that a W95 solution exists
and point me to it?

I have some software that will not (yet? ever?) run
under W2000. Is W98 a plausible solution?

Cheers

Layrent S.

One of the other controllers should work.

Yes, the only real reason to run W95 is
if there is very little memory, say 16M etc.

What does it say?

Very likely yes when it comes to your software.
However I guess no when it comes to trying to connect your controller.
