Subject: Hpt 366 UDMA, possible IRQ problem? Re: [expert] Abit be6 motherboard with hpt366 UDMA onboard crashes during boot. the sequel
I'd say IRQs. When I had my BIOS issues, I wouldn't get that far. It just wouldn't find the HPT at all, so I think you've properly eliminated that as a possibility. When the abit boots up, and after the HPT366 bios screen, it'll show you a black screen with all of the PCI devices found by the BIOS, along with thier IRQs. Look to see if there are any IRQs being shared. If there are, you may need to shuffle your PCI cards around so it does not try to busmaster the HPT controller. BTW, I think the HPT will be called a 'mass storage device' and will be listed twice with the same IRQ. That's okay. Read your Abit manual about the PCI cards, and which shares and IRQ with which. Derek. ok, thanks for your input. But what do you mean by busmaster the hpt controller? in the bios settings, it shows my sound card as irq 9 my video card as irq 10
and the hpt as 2 x 11's my bios was set as non-pnp. I have the irq's set as fixed for irq 4 ( my ISA network card ) and I reserved IRQ 5 for the soundcard, since windows seemed to need that one for sb emulation, and if it was used by any other device, it would be upset. I tried the /cat/proc/pci thing, and I noticed that the irq for my video card was set to 11, and the sound card was set to 10 so this explains the conflict, the hpt thing is sharing an irq with the video card, which I guess is bad. The Soundblaster live is in slot 4, which is unshared with any of the other slots. the network card is in the only isa slot, which is also ( as far as I can tell ) unshared. Is there any easy way to manually change the IRQ's for cards around? (Harddrake doesn't seem to do that.) I've installed linux several times before, and I've never had to play with irq's I am getting the impression that each os assigns IRQ's rather than using the ones assigned by the bios? because the irqs in windows are different than the settings in linux. The hpt thing is of course not really a card, so I can't affect that by moving it. I am thinking of getting an actual pci card for the hpt thing, a promise pci card. Would that make any difference? Thanks for your help!
