The reason I want to resolve this is because I'm making this system a dual-boot and don't yet know if Linux can find it. I may just put it in another system if I can't seem to figure out what's happening.
I suppose this isn't a 'problem' since I can do everything I need to do with this HD, but why wouldn't the BIOS be able to see the HD when Win2k sees it under the Disk Management utility?
I have 4 IDE devices setup as follows:
Primary IDE:
Master: 200GB w/ jumpers set to Master
Slave...
Both sticks were running with Auto enabled in the bios. I wasn't overclocking at all. Simply just trying to get my system stable. The fact that one stick is extremely error prone and the other has no problems tells me that this isn't a voltage or timing issue.

Unfortunately, my system when built had some crashing issues when running Call of Duty and other graphics intensive DirectX games. I could...
I just bought two 512MB DDR400 sticks (2.5 - 3 - 3) from newegg: http://www.newegg.com/app/view...=20-146-299&depa=0
In my DFI LanParty nF3 250G, there are 3 memory slots. I know that I can't get DDR400 with two sticks of dual channel SDRAM, but does it matter if I have the memory in...
By design, the case is your system's ground. As stated above, it's highly unlikely that static charge will cause any damage to your system if applied here.
On a similar note, I was shocked (pun intended) when my electrically naive mother decided it was a good idea to vacuum over the video...
Montag, I like the way you think. Those are good troubleshooting steps and are the order that I would put them in. I didn't try different cables, but I found the solution by trying a different cd drive. Instead of the old POS CD-ROM drive I was using (7+ years), I tried a slightly newer (5+...
It's not that simple... I've tried multiple bootable OS CDs (windows and linux). The same error appears regardless of what's in the drive. I know when it's trying to boot from CD, because it says "CD Boot..." right before the error.
