RE: [Thinkpad] Win 2000 Stop error after installing Dock drivers A30p

Thanks for the help Deanna,

My fault mentioning "disk drive", I couldn't remember exactly what the
listing was, I couldn't see it because sense I couldn't boot in 2000 because
of the "stop screen", thus "stepping back through" is what I am hoping to be
able to do. I pulled the drive and put my Win98 drive back in.

I am with ya up to step 7: "7. Click the plus next to IDE ATA/ATAPI
controllers."

but for step 8, "8. Double-click Intel PCI IDE Controller..." There was no
Intel PCI IDE Controller listed. The only think relative was an "Unknown
Device" listed as "Unknown PCI" something.

In Windows 98, when I successfully installed the dock drivers, this "Unknown
device" disappeared and I think now is listed as a "CMD PCI-0648 Ultra DMA
IDE Controller". I'm not real sure about that one, I do, in Win98, have an
Intel device listed but the CMD PCI-0648 part of the other divice matches
the driver intructed to select.

I didn't use the Thinkpad Software installer by the way.

Have any other ideas? Or were you just correcting what you thought was my
deviation from procedure? :)

Dave

No idea if it's the answer, but --assuming here that you didn't use the
software installer program -- I see a deviation from part of the procedure;
maybe you should step through it again. Where you said:

Rather than the "disk drives" subsection, the instructions actually direct
you further down, under "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers":

6. On the menu bar of Device Manager, ensure Devices by Type is selected 7.
Click the plus next to IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers. 8. Double-click Intel PCI
IDE Controller. The properties window should appear. 9. Click the Driver tab
and click Update Driver. 10. Click Next and select Display a list of the
known drivers for this device so that I can choose a specific driver. 11.
Click the Have Disk button, and change the location to the updated drivers.
The default location is C:\DRIVERS\WIN\IDE\WIN2K. 12. Ensure the INF file
Win2000 finds is CMDIDE.INF (not MSHDC.INF). If Win2000 recommends
MSHDC.INF, select Install one of the other drivers and click Next. 13.
Windows 2000 will display a list of available CMD PCI-IDE controllers,
select CMD PCI-0648 Ultra DMA IDE Controller from this list and continue
with default options.
