Is anyone have a W2K working with BE6 & HPT 366 ?
This is a discussion about Is anyone have a W2K working with BE6 & HPT 366 ? in the Windows Hardware category; I tried all the solutions I've seen everywhere, it's useless. I don't even want to BOOT on a 66 HD ! I want to be able to SEE it, that's all ! installing the 1. 10 HPT BIOS, using beta drivers 1. 00.

installing the 1.10 HPT BIOS, using beta drivers 1.00.5 for W2k, nothing does it.
My system :
BE6, TNT2, SBlive, celeron 300A@504
HD IBM 13.5 Go ATA66
HD IBM 10 Go
HD QUANTUM 6.4 Go
CD ASUS 36X
CDRW MITSUMI 4802TE
DVD PIONEER 103S
As you can see, I have 6 IDE peripherals, which I would like to see under 2000 (cause 98 is a PAIN IN THE ...)
Any news are welcome, please, I think I'm going to cry.
No, seriously.

BE6? thats a uniprocessor system right?? Just a question to all u uniprocessor fellas, why use win2k when u got win98 out?? it has better game/hardware support. I know all u dual fellas have excellent reason. But with a uniprocessor system its all about windown 98. (even though never in my life have I ever recommended anybody to run 9x, but u seem ike a hardcore gamer with that setup. Stick with 98.)
OP
I want to use W2000 because I play AND I develop under this system. It's much more stable than W98, the resource limit is gone, and it's far more "game-friendly" than NT4.
So, I ask again the question : anyone has 2000 working with HPT 366 ? either with a BE6 or a BP6.

That's the same UDM66 controller that the BP6s have, I believe. If you'll read around on this board you'll find that some have had success, but myself and others have run into a lot of trouble with it. I'm hoping that future bios/driver updates along with later build of Win2k will eliminate the problems!
Be sure you have the latest drivers from www.betanews.com for that controller.

They still say that u can access ATA66 from Win2k just can't boot 4 now (I just got my ATA66 drive last night.. Win98 no problem.. Win2k no luck )
