Hello Ron,

MS-DOS Compatibility Mode Problems with PCI-IDE Controllers
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=151911

It looks like that this one adresses my issue. Alas, it only adresses how
to turn-back the (semi) permanent change (seting compatibility-mode)that
Windows makes, but does not resolve the cause. :-?

Not quite optimal, but it's better than nothing and gives me the chance to
get, after a reboot, reg-edit, and subsequent re-boot, my system back in a
usable state :-)

Thanks for the pointer(s).

Regards,
Rudy Wieser
