Re: I would need a quick advice on this one... ATA-66 and ATA-100 drives and controllers are compatible. Is the cable OK? Are the master / slave jumpers on the drive and any other devices on that particular cable set correctly? Do you have both controllers on your board? (4 IDE ports) If you do, I believe that you have to use the primary ATA-100 port for your boot drive - and if it doesn't find a drive there, it stops looking. One of our students bought that board and it didn't recognize his HD when he used one of the ATA-66 ports as the only (disk) occupied port. Our heaviest use of an A7V to date is a server with 1GHZ CPU, 512 meg SDRAM, an Adaptec 3200s dual channel RAID controller, 7 - 36 gig 10K RPM IBM 1" drives (nice drives!), and an HP 40x6 autoloader. It's primarily a file server but is running SQL Sever 7 on Windows 2000 server. I know we have some A7V workstations using IDE drives, but I don't know offhand if the drives are ATA-100 or not - but I'm sure the A7V can handle an ATA-100 drive. Regards, Dan
