Archived from groups: alt>comp>periphs>mainboard>asus (more info?)
The Motherboard detects both CPU's, all of the memory, the floppy drive, and
the SATA drive connected to SATA 1. It does not identify the CD-ROM
connected to SEC_IDE1 using the 40-conductor IDE cable. I used a different
CD-ROM and used a different IDE cable with no luck. The system hangs trying
to detect ide drives (when I unplug the CD-ROM it does recognize the hard
drive). The On-chip serial ATA is set to Enhanced Mode.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Serge

I replaced the plextor with a non-Plextor CD-ROM and it worked fine. This
motherboard seems to have an issue with the two Plextors that I tried.
Now I have a problem with Maxtor's MaxBlast 3.6 recognizing the SATA hard
drive connected to SATA 0. A WinME boot disk will recognize the HD via
Fdisk and consequently it can be formatted.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Hi,
Checked firmware for Plextor?

Why are you running Max Blast, none of the current OS's require it to
see the full capacity of the drive. MB will cause a performance hit too.

As for the Plextors, do they have a CS jumper rather then Master /
Slave?

With Maxblast one can partition and format in less than a minute.

They have CS, Master and Slave jumper settings. I tried Master/Single
setting using a 40-conductor IDE cable.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Um, but if you have to use a driver to see the drive you are loosing a
lot of performance.
