Intel Application Accelerator (IAA) and large hard drives

[98 Guy]

Has anyone tested or confirmed that the use of the IAA (intelata.mpd) has allowed the correct functioning of win-98 with large IDE hard drives (larger than 137 gb) ???

Yes, if your system can use that then it always has been one of the ways to use large hard drives on 9x. Still, don't do ScanDisk in Thorough Mode and use a 3rd party defragger that works on 9x. All the 3rd party ones from circa 2000 on support the drives larger than 137GB. Windows Me defragger doesn't, if I recall correctly.

I've been using IAA2 with 160GB and 250GB hard drives for quite a time, already.

I do not know if the older version works as good as the IAA2.
