[fordster]

I have two WD's connected to my card on seperate channels
when my computer enters suspend I get a blue screen with a message saying "cannot write to drive c:." then it says to "hit any key"
I do then sometimes it will enter suspend and come out of suspend ok.

Motherboard : asus P2B-f Award bios V.1010
PIII 500
2 WD 9.1g ata 66 HD's
Win 98SE
196Mb Ram
Netgear nic card

downloaded the shutdown patches from Microsoft but still had the problem.
There are some settings in the bios that i dont understand for power mangemt like this term "DPMS" have changed it but it dident help either.
Thanks

Hi

Have you checked www.promise.com (http://www.promise.com) ?
I think they have released a patch to fix suspend problem when using the FastTrack RAID controller.

They might have a patch for the UDMA66 controller.
