Is anyone successfully using Drive Image....or PRO 3.0 on a PC with ULTRA
66 controllers.
More specifically is anyone using DI on a ABIT motherboard with ULTRA 66
controllers and drives.

I am running this configuration on a new ABIT BE6 II with latest BIOS and
drivers.
All partitioning was done with Partition Magic 5.0 Professional and checks
out OK in FDISK.


Controller 1 = Mobile drive bay ...I occasionally plug a Seagate or Maxtor
EIDE ULTRA 33 in here...

Controller 2 = Teac 32 speed EIDE CD R

Controller 3 = IBM 7200 13.5 GB Deskstar >>>BOOT DRIVE
1 small FAT 16 primary Partition.
System Commander 4.3 on C and Win98 SE2 on D
1 extended partition filled with logically
mixed FAT16 and FAT32

Controller 4 = Seagate Ultra 66 28 GB Barracuda = one large Extended filled
with FAT 32 logical

Two problems.

When I plug the EIDE drive on Controller number 1 everything works fine in
windows but the Barracuda disappears in DOS. Anybody see anything like this.

Whenever I try to load Drive Image Pro 3.0 from a clean DOS boot it locks
during loading. Same thing if I try to install it in Windows. I am trying
to determine if the problem is my setup or an incompatibility between the
Drive Image and BE6 IIs  ULtra 66 controller.
