Hi, I just removed my system hard disk (IBM 14 GB, ATA-33) and replaced it with my new Western Digital 100 GB (ATA-100), but now my BIOS is extremely slow on startup, and sometimes it won't recognize the WD-drive at all.
I previously had the WD-drive as slave on the secondary controller just for storage but now I want to have both my system and storage on it since it's much faster being ATA-100, and I'll use the old IBM-drive in my Linux-server. I've jumpered the WD-drive as master and it's attached with and ATA-66/100 cable.
Other equipment: Epox 8KHA+, Athlon XP 1600+, Samsung 52x CD-ROM (secondary, master), Tekram SCSI controller, Pioneer DVD (scsi), Yamaha CDRW (scsi), Elsa Gladiac 721 (GeForce3 Ti200).
Anyone got an idea what could be wrong here?
