Hi team i have got a problem now,
when i switch my pc, i get double bios beeps, and also an eror saying ATAPI incompatible.
What does this mean ?
cos the HDD runs fine ecept when i watch movies(in dvd quailty). There is always a jerkiness in between, say when i move my mouse. Is that because of the hdd low specs (5400RPM)
Is it on is own cable, and is it master/slave?
PHP Code:$s = new signature();
$s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
the two hdd are on the same cable, this one and another 40GB one
i have set the jumper as slave, and the 10GB slave jumpered HDD is conected by a grey connector, while the master HDD is conected with a black conenctor
Master should be the first along the cable, slave the second.
Make sure the master drive is NOT set for master with no slave (although not all drives actually have that option) - it might still work, but technically it shouldn't.
PHP Code:$s = new signature();

I am also experienceing slow mouse movements in between sometimes
so u mean no jumpers on the drive ? ya?Originally Posted by Kez
Depends on the drive... they're all different.
Also it sounds like DMA mode isn't working properly.
TBH I'd have the hard drives on separate cables, both as masters.

Not true! I have a nifty program that alows me to move entire programs to diferent location and drives, it even corects the registry!
Kez, my HDD problem is sorted, i corrected something in the bios, so that the HDD is recognised in the bios. Now no error while windos is laoding. But my startup time has increased since installing a new hardrive.
