run ATA hard drive and SATA? wont recognize SATA?

[Nick]

on the primary hard drive put the jumper on the pins which are one in from the right hand side

on the ata drive? that would set it to slave i think.. i cant remember the jumper settings. i probably tried that before tho, but i will check when im home

 

[Nick]

it should say on the drive what the jumper settings are

 

[turndigital]

yeah it does, but im at work now so i'll check later. i think the jumper is set to the one all the way to the left. and im pretty sure thats master.

 

[Nick]

well its which drive has your O/S on it

IDE on master is the proper settings. SATA is not and does not affect Master/Slave settings.

Otherwise I'd say it's bound to be a BIOS issue, but you've already checked all the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

 

[turndigital]

yeah i have the IDE set to master, and i just left the SATA because there are no slave/master. It HAS to be a bios problem for sure, but I cant figure it out. I'm gonna try to go back to an older bios version, I cant figure it out.
