Therefore, an example file extraction would be IATA_CD -A -A -P C:\<path> *** Notes: Flags and their parameters are not case sensitive. Flags may be supplied in any order, with the exception of the -S and -L flags which must be supplied last. When using the -A flag, a target path may be specified via the -P flag, and the -O, -L, -S, and -N flags are ignored. When using the -P or -O flags, a space is required between the flag and the argument; when using -L, however, there should be no space. ************************************************************ * 7. IDENTIFYING THE SOFTWARE VERSION NUMBER ************************************************************ For all operation systems, please follow the instructions presented to correctly identify the software version number. 1. Click on the Start button. Open the Programs menu. Open the Intel(R) Ultra ATA Storage Driver menu. Click on the Companion Application. 2. The Companion application appears. Observe the Storage Driver Kit Build number and the Version number within the right window of the Device Parameters tab dialog box. ************************************************************ * 8. UNINSTALLING THE SOFTWARE ************************************************************ NOTE: This procedure assumes that the above installation process was successful. This un-installation procedure is specific only to the version of the driver and installation file included in this package. 1. Click on the Start button. Open the Settings menu. Click on the Control Panel icon to open the Control Panel window. 2. Double click on the Add/Remove programs icon. 3. Select Intel(R)Ultra ATA Storage Driver and click OK. 4. Click on Yes when the script prompts for confirmation. 5. The uninstall script will prompt you to restart the system. ************************************************************ * 9. INTEL(R) ULTRA ATA COMPANION APPLICATION ************************************************************ Overview By default, running the SETUP program creates a Start Menu Program Folder named, "Intel Ultra ATA Storage," which contains shortcuts to the Intel(R) Ultra ATA Companion Application, the Companion's Help file, and the driver package README.TXT file. The Intel(R) Ultra ATA Companion is a Win32 application that works in tandem with the Intel(R) Ultra ATA Storage Driver to provide detailed, useful information about the storage subsystem. The Companion queries the Intel(R) Ultra ATA Storage Driver via its IOCTL interface to obtain detailed Ultra ATA Controller and device information, which is displayed on the screen and can be dumped to a log file. The Companion can also be used to set a particular ATA or ATAPI device's transfer mode limit (described in detail below). Displaying Controller and/or Device Information When started, the Companion's left window (the "Devices" window) contains entries for the Intel Ultra ATA controller and all connected ATA/ATAPI devices. Selecting a particular controller or device in the Devices windows causes the application to display the corresponding configuration parameters in the Companion's right window (the "Parameters" window). Parameters shown with an oscilloscope icon are read-only; parameters shown with a wrench icon are read- write. The various parameters are described below: Controller Parameters: Name Description IDE Controller Controller product name Driver Build Device driver product name Driver Version Device driver version VxD Build (1) VSD device driver product name VxD Version (1) VSD device driver version IDE Controller Tri-State Reports if controller is tri- stated PIO Mode Support PIO modes supported by controller DMA SW Mode Support Single-word DMA modes supported by controller DMA MW Mode Support Multi-word DMA modes supported by controller UDMA Mode Support Ultra DMA modes supported by controller Timeout Value (2) Reports command timeout value Flush Enable (2) Reports if run-time disk cache write flush is enabled Storage Kit Build(s) Reports what kit is installed Storage Report tab Reports basic information Device Parameters: Name Description Model Device model name Firmware Device firmware revision Serial # Device serial number Device Type Reports type of device (ATA - fixed, ATAPI - removable, etc.) PIO Mode Support PIO modes supported by device DMA SW Mode Support Single-word DMA modes supported by device DMA MW Mode Support Multi-word DMA modes supported by device UDMA Mode Support Ultra DMA modes supported by device LBA (3) Logical Block Address information CHS (3) Cylinder Head Sector information CHS sectors (3) Number of CHS sectors Disk Size (3) Total size of disk Default Transfer Mode Device's power-up default transfer mode Current Transfer Mode Device's current, configured transfer mode Transfer Mode Limit Used to limit Current Transfer Mode, applies to any device connected to that cable position Cable Type (Host) Reports if system BIOS recognizes the device is connected via a 40- or 80-conductor ATA cable Notes: (1) Only displayed on Microsoft* Windows* 98 and Windows Millennium Edition (2) Only displayed on Microsoft* Windows* NT* 4.0 (3) Only displayed for ATA fixed disk drive devices How to Change a Device's Maximum ATA Transfer Mode NOTE: The Intel(R) Ultra ATA Storage Driver automatically configures devices for their optimal transfer modes; changing the default "No Limit" setting may cause adverse system effects. At system boot, the Intel(R) Ultra ATA Storage Driver configures each ATA/ATAPI device to transfer data at particular transfer modes. These transfer modes are defined by ATA standards, and are either Programmed I/O (PIO) or Direct Memory Access (DMA or UltraDMA) type transfers. The Intel(R) Ultra ATA Storage Driver usually configures devices for their fastest capable transfer modes; however, there may be times when a different (perhaps slower) transfer mode is appropriate for a particular device or system configuration. To change a particular device's maximum configurable transfer mode, the device's Transfer Mode Limit parameter can be set to a value other than "No Limit." To change the value of this parameter, first select the target device in the Devices window. Next, double-click the parameter name "Transfer Mode Limit" in the Parameters window - this causes the "Edit Value" dialog box to appear. Next, choose a value in the "Parameter Data" pulldown and select "OK" to change the value. This change will cause the Transfer Mode Limit parameter wrench icon to flash, indicating that its value has been changed. The parameter value change does not take effect, however, until the "File/Commit Changes Now" is selected, or the application is shut down (at which point, the application will prompt the user to "Commit Changes Now"). Whenever a device's transfer mode limit is changed, the change will not take effect until the system is restarted. The Save/Print/View Report Feature Open the Intel(R) Ultra ATA Companion Application and select "File" then "Storage Report", next choose either "Save", "Print", or "View". The text report of the storage subsystem contains a variety of detailed information pertaining to the storage subsystem, including: operating system information; system registry information; platform information; driver information; controller information including a hex dump of PCI configuration register values; channel information; and device information including a hex dump of each device's IdentifyDrive/IdentifyPacketDevice data. ************************************************************ * INTEL SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT * (OEM/IHV/ISV Distribution & Single User) ************************************************************ IMPORTANT - READ BEFORE COPYING, INSTALLING OR USING.
