Hi, all.
I have a Socket 7 machine with an Aopen AP5T motherboard. I also have two drives:
1) 40 GB Samsung drive
2) 80 GB Seagate drive
I want to set Samsung drive to master and Seagate drive to slave.
When I set the jumper to first pair of pins on the Samsung drive and to the second on the Seagate drive, the BIOS detects Samsung drive as master, but can't detect Seagate at all.
When I set the jumper to the first pair of pins on the Seagate and to the second on the Samsung, it correctly detects Seagate as master and Samsung as slave.
What am I doing wrong? The motherboard has been patched to support drives bigger that 64GB.
Also, does it matter which end of the IDE cable is to connected to the master or slave drive?
