· Chinese input method problem under win98
In Win98 taskbar, there is an icon for "Chinese Input Method" under which there is "Intelligent ABC input". In some cases, this icon is not correct and an error message appears if you click on it. It is then impossible to enter Chinese. This driver fixes this problem.
· Corruption of Win98 boot registry
The issue with the Registry access error message was that after installing version 5.01 (and possibly version 5.0) of the Intel(R) Ultra ATA Storage Driver and rebooting the system, a Registry access error message might occur. The error message would appear immediately after Windows 98 or Windows 98 Second Edition (SE) had finished loading (ie. all the icons and the taskbar appeared). This occurred randomly on systems with the Intel®810, Intel® 810E, Intel® 820, and possibly Intel® 815 chipsets
Due to the Microsoft SCSI table reporting properties, the device manager for Microsoft operating systems may report an IDE drive as 'SCSI.' Note: This does not impair the functionality of the HDD.
Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition-Specific:
· In the case when a controller is removed and a "have disk" installation method is needed, a blue screen (BSOD) error may occur. Recommended workaround is to go into Safe mode and install using InstallShield.
· Using McAffee VirusScan 4.0.0 with Scan Engine 3.2.0, the HDD may not spin down when manually set using the ContolPanel power applet. This problem does not show with McAffee VirusScan 4.0.3 with ScanEngine 4.0.35.
· Due to compatibility issues supporting early 1x CD-ROMs under ACPI S3 resume, only CD-ROM devices that support DMA transfer modes should be connected to the system when using this driver.
· For performance reasons, PIO-only devices should not be slaved to high-performance DMA-capable devices such as hard disk drives, since the Intel Ultra ATA Storage Driver limits channel block transfer sizes from 64KB to 32KB for the entire channel to which an PIO-only device is connected. PIO-only devices are devices that only support PIO transfer modes, and do not support DMA transfer modes, e.g., LS-120, ZIP100).
· Uninstalling under Windows 98 does not restore the previous DMA checkbox settings for either ATA channel.
· Migrating to WinME will lead to a blue screen. uninstall Intel driver before upgrating to Millenium. see 98_to_ME.doc file.
Windows NT4.0-Specific:
Installing via SETUP under Windows NT4.0 causes "IDE CD-ROM (ATAPI 2.1) DUAL-CHANNEL IDE CONTROLLER [not started]" to show in the SCSI Adapters applet. Instead, the text should read, "Intel Ultra ATA Controller [started]". A workaround is to run the SETUP program with the -A setup flag, and manually install the Windows NT4.0 driver using the SCSI Adapters applet in Control Panel.
· Installation on Windows NT 4.0 requires the user be logged on with Administrator rights.
