Greetings. I can use a little help.
My floppy drive is not working. I cannot load the Promise drivers, because when I press F6 the instructions say to put them in drive A. My thought is that if I can switch drive letters so that the CD is drive A, then I might be able to get up and running without a floppy drive.
I am also having a problem switching to 133 front side bus. Everytime I do, the computer beeps once and then is black. I clear CMOS, which puts me back at 100 fsb, which works okay until I try again. Same result each time. Everything else is stock in the BIOS except the drive boot-up order.
My temps are seemingly high, around 59 degrees Celsius under mild load. House is a cold 22 degrees C (65 F.), same temp as reported for the case.
GEAR: new AMD xp1700+, new Dragon plus, Thermalright SK6, Arctic Silver 2, 2 sticks of new retail Crucial 256mb 2100 DDR SDRAM. Also, 2 new Maxtor 30gb 7100 UDMA 100 drives, Sunon 60mm fan.
