Trouble with ATA 133 Disk accelerator
Posted: Mon Jul 15, 2002 11:56 am
My motherboard is a K7T Pro2-A from MSI (MS6330). Yesterday I bought a Rocket 133 ATA 133 PCI Disk accelarator. The PCI card has it's own bios. When I boot my system I see the PCI BIOS coming up and it recognises the hard disks that are connected to my system. The motherboard bios before that finds no disks connected to the standard IDE controller and that is right. I connected all my disks to the PCI ATA card.
The problem: I can't use programms like DriveImage and Fix-It utilities anymore because they can't acces my disks. In the manual of DriveImage is said that Images can only be made of disks connected to the standard motherboard IDE controllers. Probably Fix-It works the same.
Question: Is there a possible workaround method so that the programms will recognise the disks? I heard something about combining BIOS of the PCI card with the motherboard BIOS. But how do I do that?
