I have a Compac DeskPro running on ME v4.90.3000, P3 930, 256MB Ram
12gig HD. About 2 years ago I added a second 80gig internal drive and
used a SIlicon Image SiI 0680 Ultra-133 Medely ATA Raid Controller in
order for Win Me to recognize it. My Bios was not supported for
anything beyond Win98.
XP Upgrade report listed my Palm OS and the Controller as not being
supported and sure enough, XP setup cannot find the second HD. I
searched SI's web site for newer drivers and nothing has worked. When
I am prompted to load a new driver from the floppy disk, XP setup says
the file is corrupt. I tried on 3 seperate times to d/l the file only
to have XP setup tell me the file was corrupt.
My suspicion is that I will need to purchase a newer controller. I am
totally clueless on these new controllers and which would be my best
option to get. Can anyone clue me in to what I might/should be looking
for in order to be able to get XP up and running?
Also, don't know if it matters but my BIOS is non-flashable.
Thanks for the help!
