I just upgraded my system, and one of the upgrades was ECS's KN3 SLI2 mobo.
I got it all up and stable, with one glaring issue; I can't get my DVD-ram to get its proper speed, and its stuck in PIO. I've gone through different OS configurations, reinstalled XP almost half a dozen times now, and still cannot fix it.
I have switched cables, tried getting xp to redetect the speeds, and tried different versions of XP to see if that had any effect.
I tried disconnecting the cable, which is on the secondary eide slot at the lower end of the board, and connected it to my secondary hdd... the result seemed to be the same, but i had not booted up into xp to see if the speeds had changed. I may do that later, but it seems like it see's any device on that secondary ide in the bios as a scsi device, refers to it at "scsi0".
There are no options i can see in the bios which enable or disable scsi functionality, or which may be blocking my use of that ide slot properly.
I have RTFM to no avail.
Does anyone else have this board and perhaps had these problems?
