DOCUMENT:Q155580 10-AUG-2001 [winnt] TITLE :Second PC-Card Hard Disk on Fourth IDE Channel Not Configured PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows NT PROD/VER:winnt:4.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbhw kbHardware ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 4.0 - Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== If you have a computer with two internal IDE channels and two PC-Card type III slots, Windows NT will not configure the second PC-Card hard disk. When you open the PC-Card tool in Control Panel and look at the properties of the second disk, the status in the driver tab will read: The driver is installed and started but didn't configure the device. When you look at the Resources tab, no resources are shown. CAUSE ===== The PCMCIA driver in Windows NT does not install a fourth IDE interface. The current implementation requires that the driver know about possible configurations. This is different from Windows 95, which supports true Plug and Play. STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be problem in Windows NT 4.0. We are researching this problem and will post additional information here in the Microsoft Knowledge base as it becomes available.
