hey i just baught all the parts for a comp, now obvioulsy i need to put together, what im askin is if there is mab a site or something to show me where the plugs and pins go.thnx
 
ok eveything is built exept that i cant figure out how to get my Serial ATA HD in, the cords dont plug into the MB, plus how many times should i start my comp, ive heard of first boot, thats just like the CPU and fans going then plugging in the HD and the other conponents, or can i just pluf it in and start the comp?? thnx for the help. oh and i have a Asus MB if that helps. but i really need to know how this HD plugs in, i might be missing a cable but i dont think so.
 
alright i should have done this b4 mybad

ASUS A7N-8X Motherboard
AMD athlon XP 333FSB 2800 w/ fan
2 Corsair 512 DDR PC3200
36GB 10krpm Serial ATA Raptor
Floppy
Liteon 52x24x52 CD-RW
MS wheel mous,opital
MS keyboard
Chieftech Case the dragon series

my only prob is that dumb SATA HD
 
I would have thought a 10k RPM HDD would be SCSI instead of Serial ATA

and i would have gone with a burner from LG or Sony or something - they are high quality

not trying to criticise
 
thats prolly

why your HDD wont plug into your mobo, since is prolly scsi, and you will need a scsi controller
 
ok got everything running, never got around to building the stupid thing, but all i need to do now is get the OS and load that sucker up and ill be ready to go.
