DTC 2278E I/O Controller Problems

When using the DTC 2278E I/O controller card, beware of how it sets up your drives.

When you install the Win 95 drivers, Win95 will set up all of your drives in a SCSI format.
This may disable your ability to play music on your IDE CD-ROM drive if you are using it off the secondary port.
I had multiple problems with my Mitsumi 4X until i discovered this.

Go to System in the Control Panel, click on your drive type, click on the drive itself and disable the SCSI options in the
drive settings section.

This I/O card will not allow me to use my Iomega Zip drive (parallel port interface) with the CD-ROM as well.
I haven't figured out how to fix this problem yet.
