Chock-full of events in the viewer.....

Dents
My event viewer is filling up with several niggling problems. As far as I can tell they havent affected my system, but then again, I'm not sure. I *have* been experiencing random lockups. Anywho, my system: BP6 w/two 366's@550 FEP32coolers ~31C temp 128mb ram.

DMA66 vs DMA33

radx
Howdye peeps, What is the big deal about upgrading to DMA66 compatiable ide-controller? Especially since you nowdays usually have to change the entire motherboard to get it. Ofcause you buy an expansion card but that will occupy a free pci slot and that stinks when you need all those 5 (like me).

BP6 HPT366 Errors in Win2k under Event Viewer

Streak
I have an Abit BP6 motherboard and am using an IBM ATA66 27GB hard drive on the HPT366 controller. I recently downloaded the Win2k drivers for the HPT366 controller and used them to install Win2k. I am also using the latest PW Bios for the BP6 and version 1.

ironman666
i am having a really weird prob with the sidewinder gamepad, win2k, and madden 2k. windows detects my joystick just fine and it runs fine in the tests. but in madden 2k the joystick doesn't respond properly and it looks like madden 2k is detecting it as a gravis pad.

Fusion
I tried searching for this in the forums, I was wondering how to be able to run A3D on win2000 retail build with an MX300. Do I need to install certain drivers or something? Oh, btw, I have a single processor system thanks guys, Fusion.

Boot.ini

Jehova
Somehow, I've lost my boot. ini file, and during startup win2k says it will use some default one instead. How can I fix this? Where does the boot. ini file usually reside?.

This is just a tip for those who may or may not have had problems installing McAfee Virusscan 4. 03 for NT on Windows 2000. Users may have experienced a hang at bootup, or an unbelievably long bootup time (>6 mins.
