My new system isn\'t working with my 001
 

I have a new setup and everything seems to work fine until I put my Digi001 PCI card in the slot and install the drivers. I've tried to install them in safemode, which works, but then windows xp refuses to start until I take out the PCI card. I've tried both PCI slots, and basically everything else. I've reformatted multiple times (which takes forever), because the system refuses to start after it freezes. I've also tried manually installing the drivers (dalwdm.sys), but it keeps freezing.

Is RAID disabled?

I'm no expert, I'm just holdin you over until one of these pros come in here and help you. I feel for you because I'm having trouble with my digi 001 working also.

Re: My new system isn\'t working with my 001
 

yea raid is disabled.

its disabled in bios, plus i never instaleld raid drivers, cuz i thought they were unneeded.

would it make a difference?


btw... im the one building the computer for punkd4life, i was just to lazy to come post here myself :P

have you guys checked the troubleshooting sticky for compatability?

Re: My new system isn\'t working with my 001
 

There are no official current compatibility listings for the Digi001, jonah.
These folks are attempting to use the 001/PTLE 6.4 with components that didn't exist when Digi stopped supporting/testing that unit and software.

Re: My new system isn\'t working with my 001
 

Oops, you're right. What would you suggest they do?

Re: My new system isn\'t working with my 001
 

I'm the wrong guy to ask... my 001 rig is ageing.
Hopefully users here with working current systems will begin to post their components for all these new 001 users.

Re: My new system isn\'t working with my 001
 

I don't have or have ever owned a 001 rig but wasn't there something about having to set the IRQ's up manually in some circumstances? or am I remembering some other piece of legacy hardware?

Re: My new system isn\'t working with my 001
 

Prior to XP, yes. There was even a prefered PCI slot under Win98.
XP handles IRQ assignment well.

Re: My new system isn\'t working with my 001
 

i was reading on the DFI motherboard forums that a couple other people where having problems with PCI cards becaUse of IRQ conflicts.


I Forgot to list the mobo im using is a lanparty nf4 SLI-DR. Processor is a x2 4200+. The digi001 card works fine on my 3500+ / abit av8 system. It installs teh drivers fine.

The only time it doesnt work is when i pop it into this new system, which was *just* built.
