Hi everybody!

I have an old tyan s2882D, twin opterons 285, 4GB of memory. One 200GB ide, for storage. One 73gb scsi as the boot. i enabled the onboard sata, connected a 200GB sata hd, ans did a copy of the 200GB ide, no prob. Then changed the parhelia graphic card, for a zotac, since the parhelia was going astray. Then connected a 120gb sata. De ziped a whole lot of music (about 60gb) i had copied on the 200GB sata, onto the 120gb sata Then added 2 146gb scsi drive and another 73gb scsi.

And now, if i leave the sata enabled, the scsi screen doesn't even show up during boot sequence, nor does it boot! Tried removing one sata drive, didn't work. I will try removing the three added scsi drives, and see what happens But i don't hope for much. Any idea about what might be going on?

Thanks a lot.

Max.
 
The controllers are fighting each other. Is there a BIOS update available maybe ?
