I used the "switch IDE controllers" technique but had trouble getting it to reboot when I switched it back again. Either the missing boot device error or a blue screen with IRQL_NOT_LESS etc in scsiport.sys. Tried various Asus drivers and eventually came across a ver 2.00.0.39 on the promise web site. It is now running happily. Except?... win2k has decided to make the promise controller, the video card, sound card, network and both USB controllers ALL IRQ 9.. and it was doing that even before the promise driver was installed (or rather, after I uninstalled one of the many). It is certainly not the default config in BIOS, or on the Linux system that shares the hard disk. Just when you think you're getting to know one system, along comes a different set of quirks. Cameron.
