FastTrak TX4000 User Manual

Miscellaneous problems such as:

FastTrak TX4000 BIOS does not appear during boot

FastTrak TX4000 driver does not load

Slow data transfer rates

Move the FastTrak TX4000 card to a different PCI slot.

Intermittent data problems

Overclocking the PCI bus may cause the system to hang or data corruption. If you experience either of these problems and you are overclocking the PCI bus, set the PCI bus back to its normal setting to see if this is causing the errors.

System CMOS Issues

Set Motherboard CMOS Boot sequence to boot to FastTrak TX4000

On some Motherboard BIOS, it is necessary to set the Boot sequence to SCSI, A:, C: since the Promise card is identified as a SCSI card.

Motherboard CMOS displays C: or D: drive failure during startup

See the Drive-Related Errors section.

Using an Onboard IDE Card with FastTrak TX4000

If an onboard IDE controller is installed with hard disks, enable support in the Motherboard Standard CMOS Setup for the drives. Note that the onboard IDE hard drives will then be the bootable hard disk unless the system BIOS has a boot sequence setting with the option to specify booting to a different device.
