To one and all, Have had a problem existing on my current motherboard that did not exist with previous motherboards. Previously, when I put the system together, and the Zip drive was on the same IDE cable as the hard drive, the Zip drive would show up as a regular drive, like the hard drive, CD drives, and so forth. BUT, when I had the motherboard changed to my new one sometime ago, the same configuration exists as previous, BUT the Zip drive is now showing as a B: floppy drive, instead of a drive like it should. This is true whether I boot to Dos or Win98, so I figure the issue has to deal with the bios. So you know, I have the other IDE cable with my CD burner and DVD drive. I purchased, but have not had a chance to install yet, a PCI controller card for the system, since I want to add an additional hard drive to the system, and would need to put both hard drives on the master channel, while keeping the Zip and other drives as well. So I was wondering, if I move the Zip drive to the slave IDE channel by itself, and move the CD burner and DVD to the controller card, would that solve the problem, or would I have to do something else to get the Zip drive recognized as expected, or what???? The motherboard is an Asus P3V4X Jumperfree PC-133 AGP/4X board. Ralph ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
