First post, by quovadis11
Hello,
I'm newbie, and sorry for my first post is question 😐
But I was panicked since a few days ago, because QDI Platinix 2E/333 + Yamaha WF192D with PC/PCI didn't work...
Last week I read this article YMF744, DOS, no DMA? (PC/PCI, SB-link tests) (edit YES DMA, read further down) and decide to buy this one in ebay.
My QDI Platinix 2E/333 have arrived a few days ago and yes, it has solder pad for PC/PCI
I went straight to suck existed solder on solder pad and solder pin header
It seems that rectangular pad is 1, and circle pad is another. so I do not solder one circle pad where is just beside rectangular pad. (is it number 3, right?)
install my WF192D sound card and boot with dos 6.2, and run SETUPDS.EXE (worked for ICH4. thanks to stamasd 😀 )
but when SETUPDS.EXE runned, It shows only S-IRQ in IRQ MODE, and DMA MODE is greyed.
Setting DMA CHANNEL to 0/1/3 is not worked. only DISABLED worked. 😠
Game also not worked properly. 🙁
And, QDI Platinix 2E/333's bios setup has no DMA channel reserve for Legacy. so I frustrated and have no idea with it.
Why is my QDI Platinix 2E/333 cannot set DMA channel in SETUPDS?
I read YMF724 under DOS problem and flip cable but there is nothing change.
and he has DMA setting in BIOS SETUP that I haven't...
is there anybody help me? please...
EDIT: ICH4, not ICH5. it's my typo and I did SETUPDS.exe for ICH4 version but, situation does not change yet 🙁...
