Tech question for those that have hooked up their system with this motherboard.
On the primary IDE channel I have my two hard drives, no problems there
But on the secondary channel, if I install my cd rom as the master, and my dvd rom as the slave, the motherboard fails to recognize either as attached. If I disconnect the dvd rom from the IDE cable, then the mb will recognize the cd-rom. I know the cd and dvd hardware are set correctly (master/slave) but I can only connect the master (cd) if I connect both, I get neither. Anyone encounter similar problems
I understand this is the wrong forum, but I am hoping that maybe the problem is a simple, commonly overlooked error because this is my first build. I would hate to think I got a bad mb
