Hello again! For the moment, yes you are correct.
There are many other updated packs for NT5, in addition.

I recommend using that MassStorage pack with DP_Chipset_wnt5_x86-32_1311161.7z and the "3rd-party" DP_Misc_wnt5_x86-32_1310141.7z at a minimum.

This combination should work for all NT5 32 bit Operating Systems.

confirmed good on ASUS P4P800 ICH5R disc install.
Thank you for your patience.

TechDud - I am so sorry, I didn't see your post and for some reason I didn't get a notification email.

I will endeavour to catchup and test any packs you have put together - for one reason or another I haven't visited this site for a while, but I am surprised to see no real driver pack updates since 12.09... I am sure there is a reason and will read it soon.

EDIT: Looks like this post has the latest (DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_1310251.7z); http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic. … 312#p54312 - Am I correct?

Wait, that's not it. I'm incorrect again.
That install from your first post should have read

"610486 Mb Disk 0 at Id 0 on bus 0 on fst376xp [MBR]"

FST376XP.SY_ exists in my DP-integrated source, so the executable is available .
For that controller, the pre-existing driver should have done the job.

Another thought is that your attempts with the Promise controller were early in diagnosis.
If you've replaced your CMOS battery with something powerful enough to light a "white" LED, as a DC current test, you should be better prepared for success. Prepare yourself for unimpressive speeds, as the FastTrak's capacity is limited by the PCI bus to 110MB/s or so even in RAID, after overhead.

Perhaps the "CC_0104" entries in the .Inf's are incorrect.
The file DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_1301b1\D\M\P\PBFSTTX2K.inf has had it's WHQL status invalidated in order to add that part of the HWID.

I haven't really offered anything, nor am i really in any position to do so.
The moderators & admins here are the ones with the clout to make you a member of the Testing Team.

Nor have "I" fixed anything; that is Damnation's fix.
I tried some other ideas, yet none of them "panned-out".

In addition, i was likely incorrect about certificates with 1024bit signatures, IIRC it was 512bit certificates that are now invalid (along with many of my assumptions).

Also, i aim to look further into that Promise PDC20378 RAID controller driver mentioned three months ago.

It's not used for both. One ends in "CC_104" while the other ends in SUBSYS_xxxxxxxx. Totally different.
None of your HWID's match the [L] section entries anyway so I'm not sure why that's a problem."
Quoted from Post#10, http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic. … 397#p49397

Neither am i.

Is this a bug in DP_BASE? (originally asked here by candles)

Sorry for the very late reply - yes, I would very much like to test it! I will send you a PM and can go from there.

I had given up hope, thank you for the offer!

Jeff and I were doing all the work for a while. I've been ludicrously busy over the past few months, so luckily these guys have jumped in and have been doing a great job.

It seems that you have been very patient.

Sounds great!

I am pretty patient! Thankfully, I have managed to get things working for me and the work of Damnation and yourself hopefully have helped others!

A bit surprised that no-one else got involved - Because I am new to the forums, I am not sure who normally does the work?

Should I be raising a bug here?? Or is that just for the BASE?
