I just got this mobo last night......i install it and hook everything up. And i went to boot it and hit tab to enter setup. So i don 't change anything at first cuz i just want it to run. I already have XP Pro on my HDD. But if i just let the bios boot and don't hit anything it just sits there, like it's frozen. And like it makes a weird noise when i hit a button on the keyboard. But if i restart and keep hitting tab constantly it will go into bios, but if i don't hit tab before the screen pops up then it freezes.
I tried to open the CD drive to put the XP disk in there, but it won't open.....and i can feel the drive, like spinning so i know that it's working, it just won't open.
Now i was looking around in bios, and i saw like IDE channel 1- None......so i think it's not detecting my hdd.....and i felt the hdd and it didn't feel like it was turned on or spinning eventhough everything was plugged up correctly.
My setup is Abit NF7-S2 with a 2500 barton, 512 of Corsair value sellect, a maxtor 250
