Default booting Presario 5330 from an ATA/133 card

In article , Brian
writes

Has anyone managed to get a Presario 5330 or similar to boot
from a drive connected to an ATA/133 card? Win 2K installs
to the drives OK up until the first time it needs to reboot,
and I've been round and round the BIOS setup screens, but I
just can't find how to get the system to boot from a drive
hooked to the ATA/133 card.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks,

Brian.

Is this a Promise card?

The manual for a Promise card instructs you to load the Promise drivers
at a very early stage in the install (for WINNT, Win 2K and Windows XP,
Win9x is different). How you do it depends upon the type of install.
Did you do this?
