In depth
A closer look at FixIDE
FixIDE is a small, but reliable application designed to force install standard IDE controller drivers on a foreign Windows XP installation. When you swap motherboards, sometimes the system blue screens while trying to load Windows on your new hardware. This is due to not having the right IDE controller drivers for the new motherboard. Unfortunately, Windows isn't smart enough to catch this issue and load it's standard drivers (if they were never installed on the system to begin with). This is where FixIDE comes in! Note
