They are in a master slave configuration. Primary is WDC WD400AB-32BVA0 and the slave is WDC WD400BB-75AUA1 Initially when I had only HDD the install used to go off fine till it wanted to look for the sets either from FTP , local dir , CD etc... Now since putting in the 2nd drive in a M/S the install just dies after the initial screen where it says 'Probing devices please wait' nothing works I even kept the PC on for 2 hrs to see if it goes ahead... Is there any resolution to this issue other than pulling out the slave hard drive ? Thanks in advance P.s posting to both since config doesn't seem to have a lot of activity... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make a great connection at Yahoo!
