Hi all,

When I start my pc the BIOS searches my disks for ages then comes up with "80 pin conductor cable not installed". The device that is causing the problem is a LITEON DVD-ROM drive. Normally i think this is because you are using a 40 pin cable but i have checked and its definitely 80 version. I also have an ATA100 harddisk on this cable .. if i remove the DVD-ROM i don't get this error.

Can anyone help me out here its extremely annoying and causes my pc to take ages to boot.

Athlon XP 2200, 512mb ram, 80+20 GB HDD, NEC DVD-RW, LITEON DVD-ROM

Thanks!
