    Anybody firmiliar with this board??

    Is there some particular something different with this board as far as getting to boot from the cdrom?? I've done formatting and reinstalling os's and I've never had trouble with doing what I'm trying to do!!

    I noticed that the IDE channels are set up a little different!! According to the labeling on the board...there is a primary, then secondary right next to that and then the next to say...third IDE, then Fourth IDE!!

    Watching the bios boot...it appears as though there is a secondary bios or something to that effect!! When it boots you can see it detect the drives, then it says Hit F1 or F11 for windows 2000, Which doesn't exist!! then it goes through a second set of detecting drives and then says "bios disabled"!!

    Like I said...I've never had trouble makeing a comp boot from the cdrom, but this on'es got me!! Guess there's a first for everyone!!
