Why does my dvd drive show up as slave when cabled as master ?
Last response: in Motherboards
I'm trying to do a repair on one of my drives,but I can't use the xp pro disk because it shows as the slave drive. It's cabled as the master and the jumper is set as master. I'm using a ASUS A8V DELUXE. Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.
thanks, foghat

It shows up as the slave drive so I can't set it as my boot drive go in your bios and set the first boot device to cdrom, slave and master have no affect on this setting
as to the slave issue: set your drive jumper to cable select, plug the blue end of the ribbon cable in the mb and the middle connector to the dvd drive
