So I had really old *** IDE cables. They both seem a bit different ones wider and looks to have more wires in it.
So I got some new round IDE cables (2x3 connection) with out thinking. There way different from my old ones and I have know idea how to hook them up.
I have 2 hard drives 2 cd roms.
The way my old IDE cables were befor:
IDE1 MB->HD1->Cd rom1 Wider one
IDE2 MB->HD2->Cd rom2 Not so wide one
I tried that with the new IDE's and I keep getting insert boot up disk.
I've tried every combo I can think of and the most I can get working is one hard drive and one cd drive.
So ya me confused.
