I have windows XP pro. I added a slave harddrive. Everything works great. but when i boot up. the Add hardware wizard comes up and trys to install drivers for the harddrive and then i get this error:

an error occurred during the installation of the device. one of the filter drivers installed for this device is invalid.

Have any ideas on fixing this?:confused:
 
is it a new hard drive, and have you formatted it?
also are your bios settings ok
 
yes

i have the harddrive working... and yes its new. i called western digital and they said the problem was with xp.. does anyone know how to correct this? because everytime i start up win xp i get the add hardware wizard and it has the error

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
