I just got a system that when powered on, system will not recognize the DVD
drive or the HDD. I can access the BIOS and see that everything is present
with the exception of the DVD and HDD. I'm pretty sure that it's a
motherboard malfunction.

Does anyone know what specifically could be wrong, and if it's something
that can be taken care of without having to replace the whole motherboard?

I'd appreciate anyone's ideas. Thanks!!!
