old mobo
I'm putting an old machine together from parts I have laying around but the motherboard is being picky about eide devices ie. hdd. and cd-roms. I finally got it to recognize the hdd but no cd. I set it for master slave and c.s. no dice. It won't detect any hdd over 2gb. It's a socket 7 with a 200mhz pentium but I have no idea who makes it. I've searched every no. on it and the bios string. There are some jumpers on it that I'm not sure about I wonder if they could be ata related? Or could this be a proprietary board. both channels work I've had hdd on both. I'm stuck. <p></p><i></i>
