I'm sorry, but this isn't true. My generic 44X CDROM,
for example, only came with a real-mode driver. I've looked on
the web site, and there isn't a protected mode driver there either.
I'm still having issues with the PCI IDE bus mastering driver
that I downloaded from FIC for my built-in IDE.
It's not enough to say "drivers are available". Actually
getting the supplied drivers to work in protected mode sometimes
requires black magic.
