My motherboard only has one IDE port, and I want to use a Hard drive and a Disk drive on it. I have an IDE ribbon with three IDE connectors on it (including the one that connects to the motherboard). When this ribbon is only connected to my Hard Drive my OS will load fine, and everything works. But when I attach my CD drive it ALWAYS tries to boot from the CDD, no matter what. I've gone into setup, and the boot menu and all that. How do I make it boot from the Hard Drive? I think it may have something to do with the Master/Slave settings with the jumpers, but my HDD's picture explaining the jumper positions has worn off, so I don't know what position its in. And I don't know what position it should be in. Can anyone help me?
