Chipset Solutions for Windows 98SE, Me, 2000 and XP
Intel 8xx Series Chipsets:
Intel offers drivers to support the full capacity of drives
larger than 137 GB on motherboards equipped with the Intel 810, 810E, 810E2,
815, 815, 815E, 815EP, 815P, 820, 820E, 830M, 830MP, 830MG, 840, 845, 850, or
860 chipset. The Intel Application Accelerator is compatible with Windows 98SE,
Me, 2000, and XP operating systems. The latest version of the driver can be
downloaded from www.intel.com/support/chipsets/iaa/. If you are not sure what
kind of chipset your motherboard has, contact your system or motherboard
manufacturer.
If you are building a new system, you can use a bootable MaxBlast CD or diskette
to partition and format large drives to their full capacity. Choose the “Set Up Your
Hard Disk” button from the Main Menu, then select the “Advanced Installation”
option during the install. After the drive has been partitioned and formatted, you
can install Windows onto your system. Once Windows has been successfully
installed, you should immediately download and install the Intel Application
Accelerator before putting your system into regular use.
Other Chipsets:
Some motherboards and PCI ATA cards equipped with VIA, SiS,
ALi, HighPoint, and Promise chipsets may have drivers or updates that will
allow you to access the full capacity of a drive larger than 137 GB, so contact
your chipset, system, or motherboard manufacturer to see if they have drivers
available for your operating system. If not, Maxtor recommends purchasing a
Maxtor Ultra ATA/SATA PCI combo card from www.maxstore.com or your local
computer retailer.
