I have a dated IDE drive and I have a new Sata drive both 80 gigs and also a new samsung DVD-RW drive. When I have the SATA and the ATA connected it boots up properly recognizes the new drives but does not make a drive partition, I tried formatting the new drive but it doesn't give me an option in the bios. Also when I have just the IDE(master) and the DVD(slave) drive connected it stops for awhile and thinks and then tell me to choose a drive to boot off of in the DOS screen, the same occurs when I have all three connected.....
My question is how do I set up the jumpers so it will recognize each drive/device and boot properly I have been doing some searches but no cigar. I basically want my IDE as my primary and the Sata as secondary drive. I know you can mix and match IDE and SATA but I have not been successful....
