I just built a new PC yesterday (my first time), went from a 2400+ XP, 500 MB SDRAM (Yes. SDRAM) and a crappy 5200FX to:
e4300 Core 2 Duo
Gigabyte 965 DS3
8800 GTS
Corsair 2 GB Dual Channel Ram
320 GB SATA Drive
Everything powers on fine, but my DVD-RW doesn't work correctly. I've tried 2 different ones (I took from my old computer) and both "work" but don't read my Windows XP disc correctly, and i got the system disk error. They both work in my old computer flawlessly, so I think It's something with the Mobo or BIOS. Maybe i got to set a setting? I read that this MOBO doesn't have good support for IDE? BIOS does recognize the drive.
I'd appreciate some help, as I'm very antsy and I want to use my new PC. I hate my old one. :beard:
Thank you.
