Promise card?

I can't answer you specifically, but there may be something here if you haven't yet found an answer.

There's sections for different hdd installations, troubleshooting, etc.

Hi Stu !

I don't think you need to disable the onboard IDE controller. They both co-exist.

I have also a Promise controller (FastTrack RAID) with a LS120 and a CD-rom plugged on the onboard controller. They are both happy and working OK !

Once again, you'd better check the manufacturer's web site...
