ATAPI Incompatible error?

Forum Systems : Homebuilt ATAPI Incompatible error?

All,


I have just built a new pc at home.

I have used...
Intel 865PE chipset
P4 3ghz HT Processor
512 DDR....

Anyways, upon boot, the bios stops with the following message...
'Primary Slave Device ATAPI incompatible'.

The device is a LG 'HL-DT-ST GCE 8320B CD Writer.

What is the issue here?
Can anyone advise please.

Many thanks,

CeNo
