Chapter 5: The FastTrak 100 RIAD Card (370DDE)
1. Specifically assigning an IRQ to a particular slot - You can tell the
motherboard to use IRQ 10 for PCI slot 1, IRQ 11 for PCI slot 2, etc.
2. Listing which IRQs are available to be assigned to the PCI slots - This
BIOS has an option where you specify “1st Available IRQ”, “2nd
Available IRQ”, etc. The BIOS then scans the PCI slots for PCI cards
and assigns these IRQs in the order that it finds the PCI cards.
3. Excluding an IRQ from being used by a PCI slot - If you have an ISA
card that is using an IRQ, change the setting for this particular IRQ from
“Available” to “used by ISA card” so that the motherboard will not
assign this IRQ to a PCI slot.
Consult your motherboard manual for information that is specific to
your motherboard.
System locks up during bootup or when Windows starts
There may be a possible IRQ conflict with an ISA card. Identify what
IRQs are used by ISA cards, enter the Mainboard PCI Setup, and
reserve the IRQ for use with ISA. PCI slots cannot share IRQs with ISA
cards.
Intermittent data problems
Do not exceed the 33Mhz PCI Bus speed. Pentiums set to higher than
default settings or AMD K6 and Cyrix CPUs can exceed these limita-
tions and cause intermittent boot and data problems.
System CMOS Issues
Set Mainboard CMOS Boot sequence to boot to FastTrak100
On some Mainboard BIOS, it is necessary to set the Boot sequence to
“SCSI, A:, C:” since the Promise card is identified as a SCSI card.
Mainboard CMOS displays C: or D: drive failure during startup
See Drive-Related Errors section.
Using an Onboard IDE Card with FastTrak100
If an onboard IDE controller is installed with hard disks, enable support
in the Mainboard Standard CMOS Setup for the drives. Note that the
onboard IDE hard drives will then be the bootable hard disk unless the
system BIOS has a boot sequence setting with a “SCSI, A:, C:” option.
