what could be wrong with this computer???
i replaced a board and processor for this guy. upgraded from a pentium ii 333 to a amd duron 950 w/ an xfx brand motherboard.
when the computer is shut down then turned back on later, the bois won't detect teh ide drives, but if you reboot it detects them find and the computer is perfect until it's shut down again. im going over there today to check it out. what should i look for? :confused: |
:wtf: Never heard that one before. Have you updated the BOIS to the lastest revision?
|
its a brand new motherboard.
|
i know with most mobo's for amd chips the most unlikely setting will cause funky shit like that to happen. just try turning different options off and on.
|
power supply? specially if it's an undersized 250W
|
sounds like it's not saving it. make sure the battery on the mobo is good.
|
if those don't work try changing the hard drive positions (master and slave) and dont forget its jumpers.
when i made my ide drives run on sata raid i had to remove a jumper on a WD HDD and put a maxtor drive's jumper as master |
1hdd and 1cdrom, hdd set to master and cdrom set to slave
DakarM, you say an underpowered p/s can cause this? for ide to now show up but to show up after reboot? |
