| 491410 | 2006-10-14 22:22:00 | I am in the mist of building a new gaming PC. After getting everying assembled I booted for the 1st time. All seems good and I enter the bios screen and notice that my HDD is Ok but it did not recognize my CDROM. So, I cannot load windows unless the CDROM is working. On the post boot screen it shows: Primary Master - ATAPI CDROM Incompatable. I have tried 2 diff CDROM that both confirmed work in other systems, 2 differnt cables, and tried both Cable Select and Master jumper settings, and also tried Primary IDE connection as well as secondary connection. All to no avail. General Pc Specs: Asus AR832-MVP Deluxe AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200 Kingston PC3200 512 x2 Radeon x1600 PCIE WD 300G 7200RPM SATAII Thermaltake 600W PS Any ideas? |

| 491414 | 2006-10-15 01:42:00 | If you unplug the harddrive and run the CD-ROM on its own does the system detect the CD-ROM? | Pete O'Neil (6584) | ||
