pci bridge

NTDEV

Hi.

I have PCI Expansion board. It consist of card for CardBus slot and
expansion board with PCI slots. Card is PCI-PCI bridge with Pericom chip,
expansion board has PCI-PCI bridge with Intel 21150 chip.
It’s detected ok in Win9x. Problem appears with Win2K, XP and NT.

I have to find out how to make it working? What could be the best point to
start?
According to specification of Pericom chip, it will work fine as standart
PCI-PCI bridge. But it won’t.

I’ll apreciate any help.

What exactly do you mean with problem? You don’t see any pci devices on
the secondary slots?

Device is shown in dev tree as PCI standart PCI-to-PCI bridge, but system
says it’s unable to load driver (Code 31).

Hmm…
There’s no ‘extra’ driver for pci-to-pci bridges. Try to put a card in a
slot behind the bridge and see if that is enumerated.
