Anyone seen a k7s5a act flakey on cold boot, specifically HD access
problems until the system gets warm(er)? Using win2k sp4 on a WD 800JB
80 gig HD.
If I attempt a normal bootup, nearly every time the NT bootloader is
not read properly, or files are not loaded properly, I get all types
of weird boot errors, all types of strange stuff. I run the WD
diagnostics on the HD from a floppy boot, and the test shows no
problems. If I initially bootup and run the diagnostics from floppy
on the HD, then soft boot, the system boots fine.
Just wondering if anyone else has seen a cold boot/IDE warmup problem
with a k7s5a. I had used the HD with another mobo for a short spell
and saw no such problems with it at that time. Have not gone back to
test the HD with the other mobo as yet.
