I went to my original installation notes. The only ATA reference I found
is the
following (under heading Advanced Installation):"1. Controller:
(E)IDE/ATA(P1)
Compatibility mode (Danis 506,Danidata P1??) Parameters:/Force GBM/IBM"
(I have no idea what that means, but there is the following note:)
"the second phase of installation aborted with error code 34 . Refer to
\var\log\ecsinst.log for details GENGRADD install failed"

I do not recall ever having to use them before.

I had a problem with a response that my "time to use the software has
expired"
and at the time I could not find the dfsee.key. I am in the process of
trying to
use DFSEE again having found the file dfsee.key

No of course. I have an older tower with eCS 1.2 that still works,
but it no longer has a working CD reader.

I hope that this information may be useful (though I doubt it)
