Would this be an okay card for a socket 7/SS7/s370 motherboard?

I have a sil3114 and I have nothing but problems with it in my 9x system, can't even boot the systems up the system with a cd drive on it.
And its slower then a Yugo, it might be the firmware tho. Its fine in win7 and xp tho.

That made me laugh 😁

I used to have a Sil3112 if I remember correctly. It did work somehow in WinXP but it's not on my recommend list. For old systems like 486/Pentium for PATA HDDs I'd use something from Promise TX100/133 and alike.

I already have a promise IDE controller, looking to get something with SATA now.

Promise SATA150 TX2 has Win9x drivers and works well for me on just about any board. I even had it in a 486 once.

I have both, SIL and Promise controllers, but ended up using SATA to IDE converters. As long as the BIOS supports the capacity it works very well.

adaptec 1210SA is a good card, and it is bootable to boot! :insert cymbal crash:

Just found a controller card in one of the boxes and it's using a Silicon Image Sil3512 controller chip. Anyone had luck with those under Windows 98?
