Hi, I have a... Amd athlon (64) processor 3000+,
Motherboard: ASUS K8v-MX, 1 GB of ram,
HDD: SATA 250 GB/ ATA 40 GB.
Last week my ATA HDD crashed so I had to install a new SATA HDD. i had to remove the ATA hdd and did a fresh reinstallation of WInXP. During the installation of xp I had to press f6 and load the sata drivers for the motherboard.
i had to load the drivers through a floppy drive otherwise an error was coming up stating that no hdd was detected. After the installation I tried to use both the ata and the sata hdd together now an error comes up in the first screen: press F1 to resume NO IDE MASTER WAS DETCTED (please excuse me am not aware of all the terms). If i press F1 then windows boots as usual and I can work on the computer.
I tried the jumper settings on the IDE HDD. Nothing happens. Just want to tell you that the SATA hdd was installed in the master slot. By this time you must have learnt that am a computer idiot.
I had a word with one f the local engineers who said that u cannot work with both the ata and the sata hdd together. I am baffled as I thought I will be able to use the both of them together. So please help!
Thanks in advance!
