I'm using the same drivers posted above and my V4 4500 seems to work just fine.

I would go with the L1A series of panaflos. I have them and they are super quiet. They seem to blow enough air to get the job done also. You can get them at www.teamawe.com

Me= not paying attention to previous post. [This message has been edited by farphle (edited 26 February 2001).]

You can debug the drive to completely erase all partitions. Boot from a 98 Startup Disk and at the prompt type "debug". Then type the following EXACTLY (paying no attention to what comes up to the left of the cursor): F 220 L1000 0 (ENTER) A CS: 100 (ENTER) MOV AX,301 (ENTER) MOV BX,200 (ENTER) MOV CX,1 (ENTER) MOV DX,80 (ENTER) <---"80" for hd1, "81" for hd2 > INT 13 (ENTER) INT 20 (ENTER) (ENTER) <-------BLANK LINE "VERY IMPORTANT" > G (ENTER) "Program terminated normally" (CTRL)-(ALT)-(DEL) to reboot system Now fdisk and format and you should be fine. This has worked for me EVERY time.

I happen to be using the DI-701 and have to say that it works great! I have had no problems with games or running an FTP server program. Mine is connected to my D-Link 5 port switch and then to all of my computers. The GUI can be installed on as many computers as you want.

You can get a third party startup manager or you can edit the registry. Just go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.

Put the files you got into the Windows dir. Open MS-DOS Prompt. It should give you "C:\WINDOWS>". Then just type "makebt32.exe". [This message has been edited by farphle (edited 02 November 2000).]

Once in DOS at the A:\> type "x:" without quotes (x being whatever drive letter your cdrom is). You should get "x:\>". Then type "cd BOOTDISK", enter. Your prompt should now be "x:\BOOTDISK>". From there it's "makeboot.exe a:". It should bring up instructions at that point.

*If you have a "BOOTDISK" dir on your Win2K CD* Try this: Boot from a Win98/WinME bootdisk. Put the Win2K CD into the drive. Change to the BOOTDISK dir. At the prompt, type "makeboot.exe a:". Then follow the instructions on the screen. I just did this so I know it works.

The link says: DOS 5 To WinME, Linux, NT4/W2k. Or just try http://myshed.net/sanx/technical.html.

It should be the first link on the page. I checked and it's still there. <shrugging>

I had that problem also. You will need to boot from the 4 Win2K setup floppies. If you don't have them, you can get them from www.bootdisk.com.

I have 2K Server running on my P200 with 64 megs of ram. Damn slow, but it runs.

Yep. I have one in one of my machines. You should be able to find one really cheap on pricewatch.com.

I'm running a VooDoo 4 4500 AGP and have had no problems at all. It uses the V5 drivers and works great.
