This is only a substitute for a 'real' driver, but it works. In the WIN directory in this file are the windows drivers. Backup your system.ini and edit it. Remove the lines

device=*int13

device=*wdctrl

Then add the lines

32BitDiskAccess=ON

device=\opti13.386

device=\optivic.386

These instructions are in the exide.exe also included in the zip.

Just delete the hard disk controllers altogether from the device manager. NOTE you may have to copy the hardware profile, then delete the hard disk controller, then delete the copied hardware profile to stop windows from detecting the hardware next/every time you boot up.
