Known issues:
- DTPro Shell extensions do not appear on x64 platforms;
- IDE Adapter is not supported on Windows XP (x64) and Windows Server 2003 (Advanced Edition)

Write to any admin to get your customer tag so you'll have access to the customer forum.

There you will get faster support [we're a big family, u know].

I have the exact same problem, and I'm on 32bit XP Pro. It also says 'HDC' instead of 'Standard IDE/ESDI Hard Disk Controler'. Sometimes when I reinstall my chipset drivers it'll work after reboot, but the driver seems to want to break itself immediately upon the next reboot or shutdown, even though the drivers *appear* fine... DT still mounts all of the IDE virtual drives on a SCSI interface...? It really boggles my mind! It seems more like a driver problem than a DT problem, but any help or ideas anyone could provide would be great.

I'm getting these following problems when I try to enable an IDE drive. The hdc one persists even AFTER rebooting. I have no idea what the other ones mean but as for the part in the hdc error message where it says "Driver is not intended for this platform" I'm a little confused because as I understand it DT Pro is incompatible with 64x and I have 32x platform.







I have:

Windows XP
Professional
Version 2002
Service Pack 2

AMD Athlon 64 Processor
3000+
1.80 GHz 1 Gig of RAM

Dunno how much of that is relevant but hope it helps.
