My apologies if this is to the wrong group.

A friend has just given me an enhanced vesa super i/o card for my PC.  
Unfortunately, the drivers he has for this card appear to be corrupt, 
as they hang my system whenever I try to run them.  I have a relatively 
(2yr) old motherboard which does not support LBA and only has BIOS 
settings for 2 IDE drives.  The motherboard is a PAT48AV VL-Bus board.

Today I purchased a 540MB MAXTOR EIDE HDD which I am trying to run from 
the primary channel of the I/O card, while leaving my 2 IDE drives on 
the secondary, but with the driver problem I cannot.  

If anybody has working drivers for a PT-627B I/O card they could post 
me I would be very grateful.  Also any further suggestions as to how I 
could get these three drives running together would be appreciated.  
Replies by e-mail are preferred as I am not a regular in this group.


Many thanks,

--
