Hi folks,

I have a problem configuring my computer hard drive. I am having difficulty with BIOS setup-sort of.

I have an old non brand name Pentium 933 computer with Asus CUSL2-C jumper free pc133 AGP 4X Motherboard, and Intel 815EPChipset and i think 300+ RAM with floppy drive, 2 CD ROM (DVD ROM and writer) and 2 hard drives.

My system has 2 separate hard-drives (IBM brand & Wester Digitalis ), 1 SONY dvd writer, 1 Compac DVD ROM, and 1 floppy drive. Could some one please tell me where to put the jumpers sequentially on each above 4 items identified, so when my computer starts it would detect all of the hard drive and DVD writer & ROM? I switched them around and my computer failed to detect any of the drives. Now the worst part is, even when i put system start up floppy disk in, i am unable to load the computer on at all. It starts loading & searching hard drive, and fails to find one. When starting the computer i tried to hit Esc button, and from F1 to F10 buttons turn by turn in-order to access my computer in a safe mode but all of my efforts were in vain. Both hard drives have already files in them. I have window xp and window 2000 option to start my computer if i can manage to start .

Please help.

cLuLLess one.
