I assumed (I guess I shouldn't) that the DOM auto boots on the card, you use its installer for the workbench of choice (mine would be 3.1) and once in stalled remove the jumper and the DOM and away you go!
OK, so the included DOM is not meant to be a production drive? Just an OS installer? Maybe get another DOM for a production drive.
I went into my COLD storage and rummaged and dug out and defrosted just to see and make sure the card part of it at least works!
:roflmao:
I am going out tomorrow and see if I can get a ide2sata adapter (instead of waiting for fleabay) and see at least if I can get my 2.5 inch 500 gig sata drive working.
I did the EXACT same thing the other day! I shoulda took a pic - what a mess-o-cables! DIDN"T work either!
And the 2.5" drive spun up and everything! I get nuthin from HDToolBox or HDInstTools. You will probably have better luck though since you can at least see your old IDE 5.25" drives.
Feeling very disappointed!
Me too! I've had my Buddha Phoenix card for like 2 years now! HAHAHAHA! I know it's not defective though.
So, I went out & bought another bare bones A2K (arrived today) just for testing so I wouldn't have to keep tearing apart the A2K in my sig! I hope the A2K test rig will help solve some Zorro2 card problems though.
