Post DLGCHK - No IDE Drives Detected

Hello - When running DLGCHK, I keep getting "No IDE drives detected. BIOS test was not performed". I believe that DLGCHK is not unlocking my TIVO drive. I have my CMOS settings for the drives on "Auto". Any ideas on what I can do to get my drive unlocked?

Many Many Thanks - Been messing with this all day.

This file should be copied to a dos boot floppy. To create a dos boot disk, place a blank disk in your floppy then exit windows to an msdos prompt and type "sys a:" at the c:\ prompt. Return to Windows and then copy the qunlock program to your new dos boot floppy. Place the qunlock dos boot disk in your floppy drive and then power up your PC.

At the A:\ prompt type the following command:

(This command assumes you have your TiVo drive connected as Secondary Master)


qunlock 2


If your drive is connected differently then use the following as reference:

0 for IDE Primary Master
1 for IDE Primary Slave
2 for IDE Secondary Master
3 for IDE Secondary Slave

The drive must be power cycled for the unlock to take effect.

The boot Cd will also automatically unlock the drive.

You don't by chance have the drive hooked up to an ata/100 connector on the mobo or an adapter card do you? I have these on my mobo and ran into the same problem, I had to move the price to the ide primary which I had my cd-rom on to get it to work. Just a thought...
