Greetings. I recently tried to resurrect an old Celeron 4A computer, choosing the budget friendly path (AMD). After many problems, the new motherboard worked. However, at first, it couldn't detect my IDE DVD drive, which I need to use to be able to do this:Migrating from Intel mobo to AMD mobo - XP dies with 7e Stop - Windows-XP-General-Discussion - Windows-XP, instead, it showed some random floppy drive. I tried disconnecting a sata adapter I had on it after discovering that IDE ports support up to 2 devices and plugging in both things in there. The same result. After a bit of time, I decide to try again. This time, it no longer acknowledged the HDD. Now it only detects a floppy drive that I did not connect. Isn't there any thing that can be done about this?
Specs: (although probably pointless to list)
Athlon II 260
Some random Sony brand DVD drive (IDE)
80gb IDE HDD with Windows XP
Transcend 4gb DDR3 RAM
BIOSTAR A770E3 motherboard
8400gs 512MB version
