And the system is mostly inoperational. Will perhaps try later on. Will also try to lookup componentes. The bios string is 09/27/2000-693A-686-6a6LGA1AC-UX It is a VIA chipset. Unfortunally cannot corfirm the brand, but most likely either abit, chaintech, gigabyte, asus or msi. >Also, is it possible to confirm that the IDE cable has been=20 >connected the correct way around (e.g. the (usually blue or=20 >red) connector is connected to the motherboard, and the=20 >furthest (usually black) connector is plugged into the master=20 >device)? =20 The issue is not the cable in any way. It operates under both Windows (for years) and Linux without problems. The issue is that FreeBSD uses UDMA66 mode. However the cable is NOT an 80-conductor and hence interference causes a lot of CRC errors. The system should detect whether a 80-conductor cable is, or is not, in place and possiblity limit the speed to UDMA33. Joris Dobbelsteen B.ICT.
