hey guys, i installed my new sapphire 5770 a few days ago and the card has been working great. im super happy with its performance. everything is great except...
when i boot my comp, i hear the cd drives (i have 3 - 2 ide, 1 sata) trying to load even though there is nothing in the drives. they cycle about 5 times, then the computer boots up like normal. like i said, its not a huge deal, but it causes my boot to take a good 20-30 sec longer.
i first went into the bios and disabled the cd drive from the boot list, and that had no effect. i then manually unplugged the power and the ide cables from both ide drives. this seemed to have solved the issue, but i want to be able to use my drives.
do you guys have any suggestions? power issue maybe? here is a link to my psu - http://www.newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16817194009
like i said, the 5770 is the only change i have made, but let me know if you need any other system specs
