[QUOTE="entropyagent, post: 564835, member: 14332"] Yes, I was suggesting that there might be a problem with the cable, or the connectors on the cable, or corresponding ones on the motherboard (I was not aware that the add-on card becomes the default.) Presumably, if it were the cable, it would be: 1) the cable that was in place when the machine first gave problems, and not any of the others you have since used in your debugging, and 2) it remained 'there can be only one' Primo when you did the reset, and refuses to change without you actually forcing it in the BIOS. This is all unlikely, but, if you have a known-good sample of one of these cables laying around, maybe you could try it? Actually, I am reminded I have a useless PATA drive with 1 loose pin on the drive controller. I was quite sad when that happened. [/QUOTE]
