wwatson1 Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 (edited) I had been clocking my amd 64 x2 4400 with some success i was finding the processors top speed and had some sytem hangs and so on, reset the bios with the jumpers and started again. but this time windows thinks i have a 3 1/2 floppy drive instead on a cd/rwr. Tried uninstalling the divice but windows just recognises new hardware on reboot and installs the cd drive as a floppy again!! Everything else is fine?? Can anyone point me in the right direction. Im am new to OC and need a little advice. Thanks again :thumbs-up: Edited April 29, 2009 by wwatson1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulktreg Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 Does the bios see everything correctly? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boinker Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 just out of curiocity have you tried shutting down, removing the cd drive and restarting?. what does it say when you do that? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy_Nate Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 On all of the motherboards I've played with (mainly older DFI's), enabling a floppy drive in BIOS will cause it to show up in windows, regardless of an actual drive being present. Is this a PATA (IDE) CD drive or SATA? For either, try a different channel, maybe a different cable. Check to see that they're being detected in BIOS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
