CD-ROM or Second IDE Hard Drive Issues

End of Interactive Support
Intel is announcing the end of interactive support for the Intel® PD440FX Motherboard. See the End of Interactive Support Announcement for details.

There are two known issues involving CD-ROM or secondary hard drives:

  • The retail version of Microsoft Windows* 95 may not recognize the Intel® 82371AB PIIX4 IDE controller used on Intel® motherboards causing the secondary IDE channel to be disabled. This can result in IDE devices (such as CD-ROM drives) not being detected or disappearing after the system is rebooted. A utility is available to update the MSHDC.INF file and resolve the issue.
  • Windows* 95 also may fail to recognize a CD-ROM drive that does not comply with the ATAPI specification.

This applies to:
Intel® PD440FX Motherboard
