No sweat.

His opening to the first sentence, "I'm running Win98 SE and ... " is
what I looked at because Win98 SE, by default, will be a problem.



True, but it costs money.

Dave, how is a PCI IDE controller going to solve his windows 98 problem?

I'm going to die rather sooner than I'd like. I tried to protect my
neighbours from crime, and became the victim of it. Complications in
hospital following this resulted in a serious illness. I now need a bone
marrow transplant. Many people around the world are waiting for a marrow
transplant, too. Please volunteer to be a marrow donor:

Because it seems apparent that the windows98 driver for his existing
motherboard controller doesn't support 48 Bit LBA and the assumption is if
he bought a new one he'd check first and ensure it came with a windows98
driver that does.

Thanks for clarifying that. I would not have made that same assumption.

think you can discuss outside in private. Your posts don't contain any
valuable quoted data.
Not worth to read them for two or three words at the bottom.
Yes I'm a top poster and I'll remain until such a crap disappear from the
newsgroups.

See you.
