I have a DELL Dimensions 450T, and am running Windows 98.
I recently installed a Sony CD-RW. After some help and advise from 'AcaCandy' and 'slipe' I decided I needed to install a ATA66 card.
I installed the card and connected the zip drive to the card, the CD-ROM and the CD-RW we connected to the secondary IDE on the motherboard. I left the hard drive as it was.
Everything seemed to be running perfectly. I was able to burn CD's with no problem However - I use Norton Systems Works and when I tried to create a 'Rescue Disc', I got an error saying that a rescue disc could not be created because my Zip drive was not a 'supported driver'.
I then swapped the CD-RW with the Zip drive on the ATA66 card.
Putting the Zip drive with the CD-ROM on the secondary as it was originally and put the CD-RW on the ATA66 card.......
I can now use the zip drive with Norton and the CD-RW and CD-ROM seems to be working........BUT.... on computer startup it flashes on the screen that the "Ultra66 contoller is not installed".
ALSO, don't know if this is related in any way, but I now have NO sound with some applications (ie Macromedia Flash) and no BASS with my music files........?? [After initial installation of the ATA66 card the sound worked fine, it wasn't until we put the CD-RW on the ATA66 card and everything else back as original that this problem occurred.]
Was sure hoping I wouldn't need your help again but.......I DO!
