Yeah I did had the hard drive hooked into IDE1 and the cd drive into IDE2 but the reason I even put the disk drive on slave was to see if there was a problem with IDE2, but I now know there isnt a problem with IDE2, so I put the cd drive back to master of IDE2.
Also as you said for me to do I went to the device manager and went into the properties of parallel ATA controller under IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers. I clicked the Primary channel tab and I could not find anything reguarding Auto Detection or DMA. I also went into the Secondary channel tab and everything in there was greyed out, I suppose this is where my disk drive is suppose to be showing up, but as I said its all greyed out saying no device.
Also reguarding deleting regristry files, I dont know what those really are and where they are, arn't regristry files the files Windows uses to keep track of what hardware is in your computer and what windows options you have selected?
I really appreciate the help
