Hi there,
I just installed a CD-R/RW into my Gateway PIII/450 mHZ computer. Windows 2000 PRO service pack 3
Config- CD-ROM -Slave for secondary IDE
CD-R/RW-Master for secondary IDE
scsi adapter in one PCI slot
Ethernet card in another
Printer hookedup to the parallel port
one floppy- Slave for Primary IDE
one hard drive- Master for Secondary IDEThe CD-R/RW will play audio CD's fine and is functioning properly according to the device manager.
When I try to run the Burning software "B's RecorderGold5.09" I get the error-"Stop:0x000000D1 (0x000000DB, 0x00000012, 0x00000000, 0xEB4571787)
Driver_IRQL_not_les_or_equal"I tried updating to the latest version of B's- same result
My IRQ report is-
System Information report written at: 10/12/2002 10:20:04 AM

9 NVidia Riva TNT

8 System CMOS/real time clock
13 Numeric data processor
6 Standard floppy disk controller
4 Communications Port (COM1)
3 Communications Port (COM2)
14 Primary IDE Channel
14 SCSI/RAID Host Controller

15 SCSI/RAID Host ControllerSystem Information report written at: 10/12/2002 10:22:38 AM
[Problem Devices]Device PNP Device ID Error Code
Primary IDE Channel PCIIDE\IDECHANNEL\4&CB9060A&0&0 32
Secondary IDE Channel PCIIDE\IDECHANNEL\4&CB9060A&0&1 32I tried changing to plug in play in the bios but that did not help.
My guess is that I do not need the SCSI/RAID host controller's set to IRQ, 14 and 15 (Same as Primary and secondary IDE)? I know I can change the IRQ's manually but do not know which I should change. I am afraid of messing up my system.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Marc,
Looks like you don't need the serial ports.
Disable them in the bios and assign them (IRQ3 or 4) to the card.Good luck!

My question to you is, how/why do you have a floppy connected to your Primary IDE anyways? There is room on your floppy cable for 2 floppy drives. I'd try taking the floppy off my Primary IDE for starters, and I'd also verify that my SCSI adapter had an ID of 0. Worth a try.

Thanks Jinx,
So the computer came with the floppy hooked to the primary IDE? Should there be a separate cable/connection on the mother board for the floppy? Maybe I just reported the set up wrong. I will check.
When you say that I should verify my SCSI adapter had an ID of 0 are you refering to the PCI card SCSI adapter?
Thanks,
Marc

So I was mistaken there is no slave for Primamry IDE (the floppy is not on that).
The PCI SCSI is in 0 position. I disabled serial ports A and B in the Bios. How do I switch the Primary and secondary IDE IRQ's to 3 and 4?Thanks,
Marc
