It sounds like you have the SATA set up to run in RAID in which you need 2 or more drives. Disable RAID in your BIOS and then try.

Don't know if any of you knew that I had very long hair but I did. I mean LONG. and Today (well actually since it's 2:30AM, yesterday) I had it cut for the first time in 3 years. Also taking example from 2 of my High School teachers (one who is also my neighbor, and the other was once upon a time my neighbor) and a fella I go to church with, my hair is being donated to Locks of Love. It's a program to make wigs for juvenile cancer patients. It has to be at least 10 inches and I easily met that requirement. There were saying at the hair place (for some reason about 4 or 5 people came back to lo

There should be an option somewhere in the BIOS to do that.

in that image, it should be be where is says OPT1. That will limit it to 150 mode so that motherboard can use it. If the motherboard sees it but the Windows disc doesn't, you may just have to switch the drive over to IDE mode in the BIOS to install windows. I never had to do that with mine when I installed XP home on my last computer and this computer and I certainly didn't have to do it with Vista x64 on Windows 7 x64 on this computer.

My XP Home disc saw my SATA drives without a problem and I didn't have them in IDE mode. No external drivers were required. I still think that he needs set his new drive in 150 mode since that's all his motherboard supports. If the drive is in 300 mode, his motherboard will not see it.

I looked up the board and it appears it supports only SATA150 so you need to move a jumper on the drive to set it into SATA150 mode since it's factory default is SATA300 mode.

Every time I start new animes, I wait a few weeks into the season and usually the singles for their OP and ED songs will be out. Since you can't buy them in the US, I have to download them. Normally when I buy CD's that are available in the US, I go to a local CD shop or Best Buy. The local CD shop is a bit pricey though.

How old is the motherboard or better yet, do you know what model the motherboard is? Your motherboard may only support SATA150 while the drive is most likely SATA300. If that's the case, you need to change a jumper on the Hard Drive to set it SATA150 mode. If not, it's possible you have a bad drive. Have you tried the drive in another computer?

Just got a few singles today so a few more Kuribayashi Minami - sympathizer Kuribayashi Minami - Sora no Kotae

Are you saying that you are trying to run dual monitors using both your integrated video and a dedicated video card? If so, you can't do that. Onboard video is supposed to be disabled when a dedicated solution is installed though it being a PCI card it may be different. Also are you sure you mean PCI and not PCI Express? Does your system have a PCI Express slot? If so then just buy a PCI Express video card with dual outputs. My last 5 video cards have all had dual outputs (2 AGP and 3 PCI Express cards). I use two monitors on my GeForce 8800GT. I use to have twin GeForce 7600GT's back in the d

Been multiple nice dry 70-75 degree days here. It was kinda cloudy yesterday and there was a light sprinkle while my dad and I were out yesterday. It's a sunny no cloud day today too at 78 degrees. Tomorrow appears to be more of the same but Wednesday is lookin like thunderstorms and down into the 50's while there appears to be a chance of rain Thursday and Friday while in the 40's.

Same girl, same episode of the same anime, and even the same scene.

I doubt it. It may have somehow been reset or the oxygen sensor started sending an acceptable signal again. I'm gonna clean out the muffler tip again and see how long it takes to turn black again. Last time I cleaned it, it was thoroughly coated in carbon by the next day. Usually it takes a while for it to get covered in carbon but even then, it doesn't get that thick of a coating so we'll see. I'll clean it out before my usual Friday runabout and see if it stays relatively clean by the end of the day. If it does, it quit running rich, if it's relatively dirty, then it's still not right.

OK, now I'm confused. Today, car runs abso-friggin-lutely perfect. It hasn't run this good in a long while. No loss of power, in fact it's power was back up to normal, not weirdo rev problems (every time I'd step on the gas, the revs would drop some then go up, and letting off the gas felt real strange, it's hard to describe), no pops, nothin. It was great. It also appears my fuel economy is back up. So now I'm all confused.

Naw, it's a component problem but because the hack wiring job, I can't check to see what's wrong.

OK, looked it up. Found out where everything was and how to check the CEL codes properly. I was to look for a green cover in which 2 plugs go into (it's a cover, it doesn't go anywhere, these plugs are for diagnostics) and put the wire in one and run it to the other plug. I found the green cover but nothing was in it. I thought, "cool, it's just not in the cover". I looked for it and couldn't find it. Now granted I did this in the middle of the night but still a flashlight was plenty to find out that the FRICKIN THING HAD BEEN CUT OUT. Whoever wired this thing for the swap did one hell of a ha

Well my problems from before changing out all the parts has returned. I thought about my dad saying he thought it was running rich and I believe I agree. It is now that I'm reminded of my dad's wisdom. He's no automotive expert, particularly not with OBD2 Hondas, but I asked what he thinks could be causing it to run rich. He said a bad sensor of some kind. He said the Oxygen Sensor would be his guess. Now I had completely blanked on that cause my Check Engine Light is permanently on for the non-existent FTP Sensor. It had not dawned on me that I could have a bad sensor that would be indicated

I've always run 93 Octane. I know it's high compression. After double checking some stuff, I don't think the plugs are under torqued. It's probably just some crap that'll work itself out soon. If it doesn't get any better, I'll ask my mechanic when my car goes in for camber kits which I plan to order this Friday when I get paid. The torque wrench I borrowed was too big for any of my sockets anyway.

The timing is still right. I just think I have the spark plugs torqued down enough. After class I'm going break out the torque wrench and check it.

Iridiums and Platinums are not supposed to gapped. I can't remember why with the platinums but the iridiums, you can break the tip since it's smaller. Straight up platinum I think is supposed to last a longer than Iridium (but don't quote me on that) but Iridium provides a better spark or something that is supposed to give the engine more power, shorten rev time, and increase efficiency. Both however supposedly provide much longer life than standard plugs. Iridiums are more expensive and meant for performance engines. NGK also makes a combination platinum/iridium plug that's supposed to provid

Guess I'll put up with my car running like crap and getting 20MPG for one more day. I'm gonna fix it Sunday after church. I spent all day today playing Tales of Symphonia on the GameCube so I didn't do it today. I wasn't fully confident in doing it by myself either. I want help to make sure I get the gap right on the plugs and the torque right when I put them in.

"why do I keep setting this damn thing this early?" or "Man I need to put a different CD in there" (CD Player alarm clock, I've had Bush - Sixteen Stone in there for a while now). and quite often "Need to quit staying up till 3AM when I have an 8AM class". That's actually hard to do considering last semester. The earliest class I had was at 11, ONE day a week, 12:30 two days, and 2 one day. I still haven't readjusted. or some days: "....... OH $#*+!!! I forgot to do my assignment!" or "....... OH $#*+!!! I forgot to study for today's exam!"

Got my dang parts today and boy lemme tell ya what....... them spark plug wires smell funny (and strong). Opened up the box and nearly passed out. By the way. This crap ^^^ frickin $162. I should be cleaning up the car soon and taking pics since there's a chance it could be in S3 Magazine ( http://www.s3mag.com/ ).

Ditto. Checked our local Circuit City that was closing mere months after it opened before the company wide closing and nothing in there was a deal. Everything I could get cheaper at Newegg or even frickin Walmart. They had an EVGA GeForce 9600 GT there that I could get for almost half at Newegg, a 500GB external HDD was like $170 (I paid about $100 each for both of my 500GB externals on Newegg), laptops were overpriced as well. My dad went with me and we were looking in seperate parts of the store. We met back up and he said nothing was a deal. We noticed many people leaving the store with not
