hello all,

I just got a new 60GB W/ ATA/133 PCI card.

What is the (OPTIMAL) IDE configurations for my setup?
*currently running Win98SE*

What drive(s) go on the PCI card and what goes on the MOBO?

1. 60GB harddrive

2. 20GB harddrive

3. 24x burner

4. 56x CDROM


thanks for your time and support!

I presume that you now have 4 IDE chans (2 from the PCI IDE card and 2 onboard your mobo). If so, put each device in its own channel and set it as Master.
