peachy Posted August 10, 2004 Posted August 10, 2004 Now that your primary IDE channel has a hard drive you will need to change the boot order in your BIOS to boot from the SATA Raptor drive first. It's defaulting to trying to boot the Maxtor.
BlahBlahBlah Posted August 10, 2004 Author Posted August 10, 2004 although..I've tried that..it doesn't make sense..I set the first boot device to SCSI, HD-0, HD-1, HD-2,HD-3.....left the 2nd boot device to CDROM, then 3rd to Floppy...still gave me error :-\ damnit...so weird
BlahBlahBlah Posted August 15, 2004 Author Posted August 15, 2004 Heh..fixed, thanks for the help guys...I tried even putting in an IDE controller card..SAME problems...soooo....I ended up doing a format on the other OS drive...and a few other things...got it to workI needed a format BAD anyways.. :-p It's all good :-D
