Board Installation

Some symptoms of incorrectly installed HDDs are:

•Hard disk drives are not auto-detected: may be a Master/Slave problem or a bad IDE cable. Contact your vendor.

•Hard Disk Drive Fail message at bootup: may be a bad cable or lack of power going to the drive.

•No video or beeps on bootup: usually means the cable is on backwards.

•Hard drive lights are constantly on: bad IDE cable or defective drives/motherboard. Try another HDD.

•Hard drives do not power up: check power cables and cabling. May also be a bad power supply or IDE drive.

Now that you have installed your IDE drives, your floppies are next.

Figure 5

Pin 1 on the floppy cable is usually denoted by a red or colored stripe down one side of the cable (see Figure 5). Most of the current floppy drives on the market require that the colored stripe be positioned so that it is right next to the power connector. In most cases, there will be a key pin on the cable which will force you to connect the cable properly.

Drive A: is usually attached to the end of the cable with the twist in it. Drive B: is usually connected to the middle of the cable. Refer to your installation instructions or call your dealer if you are unsure about attaching floppy drives.
