Auto, LBA, or CHS? Consider this:
- Your controller is setup for Auto - Your CF is detected as LBA (even though it's <= 512MB, all CFs are supposed to support LBA, my understanding) - Next day, your BIOS is having a bad-hair-day, CF is now detected as CHS (but you don't notice the boot message! - this can be due to BIOS or CF bugs... cabling, etc.) - You begin to experience problems with corruption, strangeness/weirdness Could this be the problem? The question is, will the CF boot with the wrong HD parameters, I believe the answer to this is, yes, in some cases. I have a few Lex CV860s. They detect my Sandisk industrial's as LBA. But my newer CV863A detect them as CHS. I hard set <= 512MB CFs to CHS. Never a problem. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
