IDE drives Identified as SCSI by XP
This is a discussion about IDE drives Identified as SCSI by XP in the Windows Hardware category; I find it strange that XP identifies my IDE hard disk and IDE CDrom as SCSI devices. . . tho they both function ok. Anyone else have this occur? Win98SE updated to XP Home Athlon slot A 850mhz KX133 VIA chipset, 4in1427v(a),IDE_MPD3014,VAGP410 256mb Kingmax PC133 cas2 GForce GTS/Pro 64mb DDR Nvida Ref drv 23.

To my knowledge this is normal. Windows both treats IDE RAID controllers and any drives using the VIA 4in1 IDE drivers as SCSI devices.
