Hi,
I'm having a bit of a clear out of my old PC gear. I found an old k62 400 and mobo in a case thats been sitting in a corner for several years. I decided to make it work and either sell it for £20 or if I cant get that for it then I'll give it away.
I found a suitable case for the thing and an old 12Gb Samsung Spinpoint HDD. 64Mb ram stick, ISA NIC and soundcards and an 8mb AGP (SiS 6326) graphics card. Used a floppy drive based install program from samsung to ready the hard drive and installed win98se. No problems. Installed everything else and the unofficial win98se service pack. Also installed VIA drivers for the MVP chipset, the ones VIA said were good for all MVP's. 4.34 I think they were, I can check this if necessary. Actually runs quite well! But although I was able to enable DMA for the CDROM it just wont enable for the HDD. I go to the relevant checkbox and tick it. Restart and when I go back to check: DMA is still not enabled. I am somewhat stumped on this one.
Any ideas?
