i already did this
there are no problems with any of the parts or the motherboard
does any one know how to set the bios to 32 bit for the IDE

just because you havent a board of this doesnt mean i have to automatically format the harddrive
i would expect that from a newbie or an unexperienced tech
as well
the ide connector was already dected by the bios
there was and is an update on the computerand mb
i formated the harddrive and even installed a new hd
i even aquired the manual
i even tried to put a 40 80 ide ribbon and still got the same results
i wont need further comments to this post as the main cause is the ide connection not the south bridge

not any other solution because ide connector directly attach with
south bridge your bridge may be faulty so i will advise you purchase PCI TO IDE card .
