The file is called danis506.zip and contains a busmaster IDE driver for recent VIA chipsets. By the way, it's neither been done by IBM nor by VIA - the author, Daniela Engert, says in the readme she was discontent with her system's performance, and since IBM does not support it and the VIA efforts were too buggy she decided to write her own driver. It works well in my Tyan Trinity 100AT based machine and boosts SysBench performance of my Seagate 9 GB disk from 6.4/6.4 MB/s cache/transfer to 21/11 MB respectively. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
