I have tried several times to install W2K on 694D Pro with Promise UDMA-100 controler but failed. I followed the MSI's instruction but W2K cannot find HD connected to UDMA-100 connector.(I press F6 and installed Promise driver while installing W2K). I installed WinME successfully, but I don't buy Dual CPU board to use with Win98 or Me, :). Please help me if you know how to.

Thanks,

The Promise ATA-100 driver included on the CD is screwed up. Download the latest drivers from Promise's FTP Site for your controller, and install those instead.

Additionally, you may have to remove the second cpu when installing, or else you'll get a blue screen. Just one of a few quirks the board has during install. Once you get passed that, it should be smooth sailing (it was for me at least :))
