If it is PCI class code 0101 and they expect to work on Windows, the layout of the controller (BAR'S 0 - 5) and the layout of the registers within those BAR'S will be as documented there. -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Jansen, WTY Soft To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 2/19/2004 1:52 AM Subject: RE: [t13] How to detect whether a host adapter complies with 1510D This message is from the T13 list server.

I guess that except the ADMA part 1510D describes the PIX(compatible) controllers. There is no way to detect this except creating a list of supported controllers. Does anyone know whether there are documents which contain this info for the more popular chipsets / controllers? Thomas
