I just built my new rig and moved in two of my old HDDs into the new computer case. Here are the specs:
----------------------------
Athlon 64 3700+ (San Diego)
Asus A8N5X NForce4 Mobo
Asus Radeon X1900XT
Creative Labs X-Fi
1G Corsair XMS
150G Raptor 10,000RPM HDD
250G WD 7,200RPM HDD --->my old boot drive for the old computer
40G WD 7,200RPM HDD
Windows XP
For the initial WinXP install I disconnected my IDE HDDs and I got the computer up and running perfectly fine. I installed all the drivers for the Mobo from the CD, and turn the computer off.
I reconnect the IDE HDDs (200g is Master and 40g is Slave - set to Cable Select - on IDE Channel 1) and start the rig up. It gets to Windows Loading and flashes a Blue Screen of Death for about .2 seconds and reboots. The rebooting doesn't end, its an endless cycle.
Could this be an out-of-date driver issue (wouldn't think so since none of the tech I'm using is ground breakingly new) or a BIOS setting issue or something?
When I re-disconnect the ATA HDDs it boots up just fine on the Raptor.
Any ideas, cause I'm all out of 'em. Thanks much in advance.
