Most motherboards have one IDE port on this that you can run 2 IDE devices off of. Note the main reason for this IDE port is not all ROM drives are SATA yet but you can run hard drives off this port as well.
Let me know if you have any more questions or problems
1.FIRST YOU DO ONE THING IF YOU USING XP OS MEANS CHANGE THE SATA MODE TO IDE OTHER WISE CHANGE THE SATA MODE TO AICH. 2.IF BOOT WITH CD MEANS CHANGE BOOT PRIORITY CD/DVD ROM 2.IF YOU BOOT WITH HDD MEANS CHOOSE HDD. BIOS OPTION----CONTINUOSLY PRESS F2 KEY.

IF THERE IS ANOTHER IDE PORT FOR A SECONDARY DRIVE i WOULD TRY TO SWITCH OVER TO IT . IF NOT THE MOBO MAY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE IDE PORT. VEIRFIED THAT THE DRIVES ARE CORRECT AND TRY TO CHANGE THE BOOT ORDER IN BIOS .
on pata ,flate data cable use in long connerter . on sata cable we use thin and flatcable join in n small squire port. some bord have both type port we can use diffrent port in same time . but port should be good. i think there no chance to join different connecter joining. we look seriously. in any coonater we saw cuttin g shape or male female shape. power cable of smps which join in hdd/cd room may be lose when we join any part it can be short so connecting any cable before we do switch off or pullout powercable.
Once you reset the bios everything goes to manufactures default settings. You will need to make some changes within the bios. You'll need the help of the manual. See page 3-20. If your operating system is loaded on to the ATA IDE drive make sure you set bios settings as follows: Connect the ATA IDE to MB primary master IDE port. Connect the ATA SATA drive to the MB's first SATA port. ATA Configuration Set as, [P-ATA+S-ATA] S-ATA Keep [Enabled] Set to [Yes] This enables the SATA controller. P-ATA Keep [Enabled] Set to [Yes] This enables the IDE controller. On-chip IDE configuration, "ATA Configuration = [P-ATA+S-ATA]". Next go to Boot menu. Make sure the ATA IDE drive is chosen as boot device three. First boot device [Floppy] (If you have a floppy disk drive connected.) Second boot device would be [DVD/CD-ROM] drive. This should be connected to the MB's secondary IDE port & the DVD/CD-ROM drives Master/Slave jumper, set to Master. Third boot device [ATA IDE drive] If your boot drive is the SATA drive than set: third boot device to the SATA drive. (Hard disk drive with operating system loaded on it). Save your changes & exit the bios. Keep in mind all ATA SATA drives are seen as Master drives. SATA drives are seen by the SATA controller & in order by their connection to the SATA port number. Save & exit the bios. The system will auto restart. Windows should start.
If you are using a SP2 XP or Vista installation disk, then the SATA drivers are usually not needed as both have the drivers built in. SATA is far better to use for your hard drive. If perchance the drivers are needed, they should have come with your motherboard but I highly doubt they will be. I haven't had one yet in a new installation where the drivers were needed.
Thanks and please take a moment to rate as fixya. Thank you.
LEAVE YOU hard drive on primary master port on your main board set as master or single drive ( IF YOU HAVE A STATA HARD DRIVE THEN DONT WORRY ABOUT THAT PART)
SET YOUR FIRST DRIVE AS MASTER SET THE SECOND AS SECONDARY
use the jumber in the back of the drive to set them the propper setting is labeled on the drive it self
Connect them to the secondary port on your motherboard
so you should have
HARD DRIVE - MASTER OR SINGLE *jumper settiing* connected to the primary port on your main board
DRIVE 1 = MASTER *jumper settiing*
DRIVE 2 = SLAVE *jumpersetting*
connected to the secondary port on your mother board
IF YOU HAVE A SATA HARD DRIVE FORGET THE PARTS ABOUT HARD DRIVES ABOVE
i assumed you had a IDE hard drive
JUST USE THE SETTINGS FOR THE DRIVES and it should work :)
If you have other Optical Drive in your computer like a CDwriter then installed it where that LG 52x CDROM drive. Observe if the same problem occur after 2 or 3 hours.
Try connecting the CDROM drive to the IDE ports (Secondary IDE port) like setting its jumper to Master.
Ensure that the connection to its power supply is firm.
Change the setting of your POWER OPTIONS which is under the CONTROL PANEL and change the setting for TURN-OFF HARD DISK to NEVER.
