Just got this board passed on to me!
AthlonXP 2400 333fsb CPU with 256Meg DDR
Board gets into Setup..will Replace bios, etc!
BUT will NOT recognize ANY HD/CD drive on the IDE Raid included! it,s like
not having anything connected!
cables ok! HD drives are fine on my older ABIT At7a.
setup will not see anything except the Floppy!

Cheers Dennis

Problem solved,IDE was turned off,did'nt have the manual and looked all over
for it,found it buried...ABIT makes it easy to find by puttin ALL the IDE
stuff in one place,This is ONE single line buried in among other things.
Like the Board thou! It has a couple of things ABIT should have,like having
a Raid 40pin header along with the SATA ones...One could use their old
drives for something and still upgrade to Sata.NOT bad! for finding
MB with AthlonXP 2400/ with a kickass FAN with CASE! at the tranfur DUMP no
less(grin) Sounds like he turned off the IDE somehow,and could not figure
out what happened and dumped it!
Cheers Dennis.
