Author of Ultra100 to FastTrak100 mod suggested that it was not known how to reverse the mod.

Promise Ultra use DMA mode at reading and PIO mode at writing to ATAPI devices.
This includes ultra.sys v2.1.0.3
http://firstweb.promise.com/support/dow … amp;os=100

Do not attach a writer to a Promise Ultra card.

Promise hasn't supported that card in nearly a decade.

The Win2k & Win2k3 drivers from the fore-referenced driver are also non-WHQL'ed (last WHQL driver presumably was pre-v2.0.0.42 dated latter-2002).

One performance difference i have noted so far is a slight increase in CPU usage (24% average for the same DVD+RW disc - only testing 1 LG optical drive for now).
The write speed & cpu usage went haywire about halfway through the burn with an average of 1.2x and the cpu usage all over the map.  The verify had good read spead (15MB/s), unfortunately
not without read errors (11).  I will try another fresh DVD+RW to see if i obtain the same results.   ....Coming Soon!

Later, i will test the vista driver on xp & report results; i have found no applicable driver on Windows Update Catalog.
I will use a test computer rather than my main machine as this may not work (i sense mr_smartepants evacuating to a safe distance...:)) *** Do not try this at home!!!

If i note no improvement in the write speed/Buffer of a DVD+RW, i will skip further testing for XP.  No sense trying to solve this yet.

To be fair; it is an ultra -> fasttrak100 mod that i have presumably reversed to be an ultra once again.
If the HWID for it doesn't jive (PCI\VEN_105A&DEV_4D30&CC_0180), then this may be my error.
ok, i've found a reference here:  http://www.911cd.net/forums/lofiversion … 16941.html, so my HWID is likely not in error.

I did experience a problem burning a disc to DVD with the stock XP driver; the device buffer kept filling & emptying, and the record speed was 1.4X instead of 4X.
Disc reading appeared to work at full speed (11MB/s).  I am told that the BIOS associated with this series of Promise controllers is limited to 137GB, yet either driver will handle up to 2TB in Windows. (unconfirmed by me)

I will venture to retry this with driver v2.0.0.43, then this Vista WHQL driver --> http://firstweb.promise.com/upload/Supp … driver.rar
  if necessary, with the goal of reporting my findings.

I note that of the .cat files included in the SiliconImage original driver, only the Win2k & Win2k3 cat files have the same SHA1 Hash value.  http://firstweb.promise.com/support/fil … er_b43.zip
The files included in \D\M\P\ do indeed match the SHA1 signatures for WinXP, not the files from the Win2k nor Win2k3 folders.

I had no IDE devices plugged in when i ran SaveHWIDs.
