Hiya,

It's because your CF is marked as removable and the IDE-Fix software doesn't like it (there's a long thread over on EAB about it).

Do you actually need both channels?   If the answer is no, then don't bother installing the software, I've got more speed from using the patched scsi.device with PFS.
