BionicSniper Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 If your messing with Sata this is what i found out, under any circumstances (dont know if its just my DFI board) the SATA drive that holds the OS must be on SATA 1 slot. From there, you can just add anything else. 569246[/snapback] i've found that any computer useing the silicon image sata chip it doesnt matter which sata port the os hdd is in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CmpFreak88 Posted November 1, 2005 Posted November 1, 2005 Yeah there is, lol as weird as that question sounds. Alcohol 120, google it. Great program, but you need a lot of hard drive space and a cd-rom drive to load up all the games in the first place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

asus Posted November 1, 2005 Posted November 1, 2005 (edited) have you checked your jumper settings for your cd-rom drive.. if your using SATA for your hard drives, and IDE for your cd-rom.. make sure your cd drive isint set to slave on ide dev1.. i would make sure its master of ide dev0.. jumper settings are usually the cause of cd rom drives not working.. in my experence anyway.
