I just replaced my PSU.
Reconnect all the power to my mobo, 2 IDE HDD, 1 SATA HDD, and my Video Card.
It wouldn't boot past "Verifying DMI Pool Data". So I checked all the connections and everything is solid. So I was starting to think maybe I hosed the boot sector on my main drive, but when I disconnected the power from my 2 storage drives, then it booted right up. What I don't get is that I haven't changed any jumpers on any of the HDD's so I don't get why it won't read my main drive to boot. When the other 2 storage drives are connected, they show as Primary Master/Slave, and the main drive will show as Secondary Master (even though it isn't on IDE, its on SATA). However, when I unhook the power from the 2 IDE storage drives, then my main drive shows as Primary Master and boots up fine.
Anyone got any ideas on why it won't boot from the SATA drive when all 3 are connected?
