March 11, 200717 yr FPCH Admin Did you change the jumper on the back of the drive before you installed it? If you have 2 hard drives, the original and the new one, then you need to set the jumper on the new one to master and the old one to slave. If you only have one drive then make sure it is set to master. Another Forum - Unlike the Rest
