GreenMachine Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 I have succesfully added both, but only tested in VPC. For what that's worth ...As you mention, both have the same PnP PCI ID, so with both present, Windows will always pick the same one as the best fit. I consider this to be very shoddy engineering, and for this reason, I will not be purchasing any Promise Controllers (who knows what else they've overlooked ... ).You could add both, and then pick the desired driver after setup.Sorry, that's the best suggestion I could come up with.Also ... no cross forum double posting - please read the rules.Welcome to MSFN!

GreenMachine Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 No problem. Do post if you find a better solution than my meager "suggestion". I'm not too optimistic, and still disappointed in Promise on this one.Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
