If this is your only hard disk drive, make sure it is connected to the primary IDE interface on the system board. If you have a CD-ROM drive, make sure it is connected to the secondary IDE interface and is not connected to the same interface as any hard disk drive. If you are using MS-DOS and Windows 3.1, make sure the PCI IDE driver is installed and loaded; see "Installing the PCI IDE Drivers" in Chapter 2. To take advantage of the driver, your hard disk drive must be compatible with the ATA-2 specification; check your hard disk drive documentation for this information. Some hard disk drives may not support the power management features on your system. You may need to disable these features in SETUP; see "Setting the Green PC Features" in Chapter 2 for more information. You see a hard disk drive error when you start your system. Run SETUP and check that your system is auto-sensing the correct drive type. If SETUP cannot automatically detect the hard disk drive type or displays information that does not match your drive, you need to define your own drive type. See "Defining your own drive parameters" in Chapter 2. Check to make sure you did not disable the IDE controller by changing the setting of jumper JP13 on the main system board; see "Changing the Jumper Settings" in Chapter 4 for more information. Make sure the jumpers on the hard disk drive are set correctly. See the documentation that came with the drive for more information. Troubleshooting 7-11
