Yeah just beat you to it.<br />
<br />
Unplugged the drives and tried them one by one to find my problem child.<br />
<br />
They all worked! turns out I put an old IDE cable in and this screwed everything up. I put a new cable in and everything is running sweet.<br />
<br />
Currently installing my OS.<br />
<br />
Thanks for the help trying one drive at a time was right. Funny how things click when you take a step back and relax.<br />
<br />
Cheers.

Just purchased a new motherboard (ECCS Elitegroup K7SOM+ 5.2c) with AMD Duron Slot A (1Ghz).<br />
Plugged in and boots up fine.<br />
Attached are 1nr floppy, 1nr CDROM (secondary master), 1nr 2.5Gb (primary Master) and 1nr 40GB (primary slave).<br />
<br />
Problem is the bios will not detect any of them except the floppy.<br />
<br />
Auto detect is not working. Any ideas please?<br />
<br />
I try to enter the drives as user or CDROM where appropriate but no joy.

Bios cannot detect any drives!

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
