Ide -> Scsi??

[Vertig0]

I just got a new LTR-52327S (Lite-on 52x32x52x) in to replace my old PX-R820T (Plextor 8x20x). However, when I swapped the old Plextor drive out (along with the accompanying SCSI card) for my new Lite-on drive, something went wrong with my IDE settings... Windows now has *everything* on both my IDE channels showing as SCSI devices. My 120g WD IDE hdd, Toshiba 1502, and the new Lite-on are all showing as SCSI devices in Device Manager. They all appear as normal, with the correct model numbers showing, but with SCSI inserted - "LITE-ON LTR-52327S SCSI CdRom Device".

Relevant System specs are as follows:

WinXP Pro SP1
Abit NF7-S Rev. 2
LTR-52327S (Master IDE1)
Toshiba SD-M1502 (Slave IDE1)
WD 1200JB (Master IDE0)
ASPI Layer 4.71.2 installed over 4.6

So what happened???

Btw, afaik, everything works properly. All drives appear to be functioning normally, with the exception of drive detection in Device Manager. Also, both Nero and Alcohol 120% can correctly identify the drives..

That is really weird. Try uninstalling the drivers and reinstalling them. Even try unplugging the device's power and let it sit for a while, and then plug it back in.

Erm... Well, I found the culprit. Uninstalling the nForce IDE drivers solved my problems... Everything is now back to normal, and I'm back on the default IDE drivers... Real strange.

I've got the same issue with all my HDs and CD/DVD drives showing up as SCSI... and not all my drives are connected to my NF7-S. The Yamaha drive is connected to a PCI IDE card. I'm not sure what to make of it... maybe a WinXP thing. As long as my drives work OK I guess it's not a big deal.

Here's a shot (all devices are IDE):

Do you have the nForce IDE drivers installed? If so, try removing them... Worked for me.
