Default Large Hard Drive on Promise Card Doesn't Work

If not, what do I need to do to fully use this drive reliably on my
Promise controller under FAT32 on a Win 98 machine?


Firstly, get an 80 wire IDE cable. Not hard, that has been the standard
for a long time.

Secondly, you might want to try including the line in the autoexe.bat in
the one used at boot...the exe it starts may be a manager for the
"larger than windows can handle" drive.
