Hello DC friends ,
I just upgraded the mother board in my computer and donated my old board to a less fortunate friend. The problem is that when POSTing the board is now very slow to detect the IDE drives, like 4-6 minutes.
Then when it gets to verifying dmi pool data..... I do not get a sucess it just hangs again for up to 2 minutes before trying to proceed booting the dvd drive (which is what i want) and then starts to buut and will either hang or occasionally boot in then hang.
here are the system specs:
Mother board:
NF7-S2GChipset: nForce2 Ultra 400 + RAID MCP
AMD 2800+
1.5Gb ram
Nvidia 7500 gs 512Mb
drives:
ide 1:
lite-on Dvd burner (Master)
HDD WDC ide 60Gb (slave)
IDE 2:
generic dvd rom (Master)
SATA 1:
HDD WDC SATA 500Gb (no jumper as per docs)
