what are you bunging on the ide channel? if its a HDD make sure the access mode is set to logical block addressing (LBA)

Boneface · Oct 27, 2006, 11:18 PM

Looked and it is set to auto

Ketxxx · Oct 27, 2006, 11:31 PM

physically set it to LBA, a lot of BIOS IDE settings default to CHS.

please, memorize and practice this phrase
"it dosnt work, make it work, or give me my money back"

if you get your money back, avoid asus like the plague.
