Kenwood 72X CDROM (XP Drivers)

gcforce
Hello, I bought a Kenwood 72X CDROM drive, UCR421 but only to find out from the website that this puppy is not compatible with XP Pro and Kenwood will not be making any XP drivers for it. This issue is quite disappointing to hear at this point, but I’m not giving up just yet.

Need RAID expert-----NOW!!!!!

Brian Frank
Okay, I have an MSI 694D Pro-A motherboard with the Promise PCD20265 ATA100 controller plus a limited FastTrak BIOS with RAID function. I install Win2k on my hard drive this time and it will boot up fine on the regular IDE channels, but it is seen as a Free drive in the Promise RAID BIOS.

Can't force XP to install with ACPI HAL

*Iblis*
I'm trying to install XP on a system that I've had for a while but it refuses to install with the ACPI HAL. If I leave the installation then it uses the 'Standard PC' HAL according to device manager.
