I just put together a "new" build utilizing a few parts from an older pc that I had.
Using a new Motherboard, graphics card and ram combining it with an old hard-drive and dvddrive (ATAPI/E-IDE).
The hard-drive is set to Cable Select, as is the dvd drive but for some reason, when both are connected along the same cable, since the board only has a single connector.
This only seems to be a problem when both drives are connected, as if only one is, it boots up alright (tested with live cd's and the hard-drive already has an OS installed).
I've tried changing the jumpers so that the hard-drive is set as master, but for some reason this is still an issue.
To be honest, I'm not quite sure why this is happening, and in the end I ended up just converting the dvd-drive to run off USB at the moment, and it runs fine.
