hello all, i'm putting together a Pismo for my
daughter's Christmas present as i did for her older
brother last year. as before, i decided to add a new
5400 rpm Toshiba drive, making sure of course that is
is ATA-5 compliant as per Other World Computer's item

I'm sure someone else will mention this, and I know you already tried
it, but are you sure that you've re-seated the processor card firmly?
