Roger- Right... if anything all you can do is reorder the Hard Disk Sequence. 1. System BIOS boot devices 2. USB device (not installed) As a fix were you suggesting to edit the boot.ini file to what you have above? I tell you - if I still had the system setup that way I'd definitely try...

Okay I think it's pretty much fixed... but it's a workaround... Wed night I tried to FTP Knoppix... only for it to time out with "10 seconds remaining" after about an hour and a half. So I yanked the new drive out and took it to work Thursday morning where we grabbed my data and put it on an...

Well, I went to FTP the Knoppix CD image last night and after about an hour and a half... with "10 seconds remaining" the operation timed out on the download... that was late so I just gave up... this morning before work I yanked the SATA HDD out and had my IT guy at work pull the data and put...

One other thing... I have a "Boot Device Menu" If I hit F12 at startup it takes me to the boot devices menu... where I can "force" how I want to boot the system... Here is what the screen shows (black DOS screen) Boot Device Menu 1. Normal 2. SATA Secondary Drive 3. Primary Master Drive 4...

Last thing: If you look at my settings - 2 posts up: Those settings are how it needs to be to currently boot... By turning on "SATA Secondary Drive" (which is where the BIOS will recognize the 320GB SATA drive) the computer will not boot. How would I make the SATA drive be the "SATA Primary...

Sooo... addressing Tony's (Wahnula) question about the SATA drive creeping into the boot sequence... judging from my boot sequence settings (below) I don't really see how it could. 1. Diskette Drive 2. Hard-Disk Drive C: 3. IDE CD-ROM Device I can only reorder the sequence and/or turn them off...

Okay... I'm in the BIOS setup (F2). I am at the latest BIOS version (A12). Here are the settings: "Drive Configuration": Diskette Drive A:......3.5 inch 1.44 MB SATA Primary Drive.....OFF SATA Secondary Drive...OFF Primary Master Drive...Hard Drive Primary Slave Drive....OFF Secondary Master...

cdogg- Thank you for checking/searching on my statement... I'll see if I can find what I was referring to... so maybe I/we can possibly validate (or invalidate) the statement. I do know that my BIOS is at v.A12... I will verify that it is the latest. Thanks again- Should be home in a few...

cdogg- Thank you very much- Yeah, I just copied the contents of My Documents folder.... nothing else... mostly office docs, images, videos and about 35GB of music... Keep in mind that the only time the system booted with the SATA drive "on" it wasn't being recognized by Windows yet... only by...

Tony- Thank you for the help- I'm not at my PC right now but will try fixing the boot order issue when I get back to it. I will say that F2 takes me to setup and F12 takes me to a boot menu. I think all of the boot order settings are in the F2 setup. I'm pretty sure the boot order is set to...

Well, I just installed a 320GB Seagate Barracuda SATA/300 on my Dell Dimension 4600 two nights ago - I added it as an additional drive to the master (IDE) 80GB WD that came with the computer... WinXP is the operating system by the way... I physically installed the drive - turned the SATA...
