Any specific reason to start them both? Normally, I only use ATAPI, it handles all my (E)IDE stuff..<br />

I too only run ATAPI, the SP4 and SP2 driver always gives the error you indicate (the SP3 version doesn't) but the driver still functions correctly.<br />
<br />
I cannot find any device in conflict, indeed my error message seems to indicate the ATAPI driver is conflicting with itself!<br />

Gentlemen, Thank you! I can now stop beating my head against the wall in frustration!<br />
Note: looks like an NT installation bug. When I added the CD-ROM ATAPI was added to the system but ATDISK was not disabled.<br />
<br />
New Problem: The question is answered, how do I &quot;pay&quot; the points?<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
On a 486 DX2-80 with 16MB running NT Server SP4 I have a Hard Disc and a CD-ROM on the same IDE channel. The BIOS does not support 2 IDE channels. ATAPI will not start because of a conflict with ATDISK. Both &quot;claimed an IO port range with starting address 0x28 and 0x2c, and length in data address 0x30.&quot;<br />
I saw a reference somewhere that this would be fixed in SP4 but apparently hasn't, or I'm doing something wrong.<br />
Is it possible to to get this configuration to work?
