| 146460 | 2003-05-22 05:53:00 | Hi Folks I have a hardware problem with my PC. When I boot up (cold boot) my computer everything is fine, all hardware peripheral devices are picked up by the computer. I have a HDD set as Master connected to the Primary IDE (nothing else on primary). On the Secondary IDE I have a CD-RW set as Master and DVD-Rom set as slave. Now everytime I restart my computer (warm boot) I can't see my DVD-Rom. Nothing appears in my "Windows Explorer" window and it's not listed in "Device Manager". I don't know if it's a BIOS setup problem or what. I have the Award BIOS on my motherboard but I'm not sure what version it is. My motherboard is DFI AM75-EC (crappy) and I'm using Windows XP Professional. Maybe I should mention that the problem occured after I transferred all the parts including the motherboard to a new case. If you can help I'd appreciate it. Cheers |
