Hello all,
            I've run into a bit of trouble with my VLB EIDE controller
card running on Mode 4. The CD doesn't like it.

  These are the results I  get...

IDE Mode    Transfer      Transfer    CD?
            Conner        WD250

600nS (1)   1099 Kb/s     1082 Kb/s   ok
500nS (2)   1209          1243        ok        <--- I set it here
400nS (3)   1448          1474        stuffed
240nS (40   1521          1477        stuffed +

  The big step is mode 2-3 .

  My hard drives seem to work okay on all modes and improves 40% at
best. So... I thought I'd run the CD-ROM off the old ISA card.

  Keith said it's possible to use two IDE cards, but I can't make it
work and I don't know what I'm doing wrong... unless you can't mix VLB
and ISA.

  First, I set the VESA board to use just address 1F0 (it was set to
use 1F0/170). This worked... I lost the CD ROM.

  Then I disabled everything on the ISA board, enabled IDE and set it
to "secondary IDE selected". It won't complete the boot. As soon as I
plug in the ISA card, it stops... even when I disable the IDE too!

  HELP!!! 

Regards,
Bob
