    Can't See Hard drive in BIOS

    Hi everyone

    I recently purchased ASRock N68C -S, Nvidia geforce 7025 / nforce 630a chipset motherboard with AMD Athlon (tm) II X4 630 processor. I have installed windows 7. This motherboard had only one IDE connection so i decided to purchase SATA to IDE converter....

    As i was installing this converter i have changed some settings in BIOS and now its stop detecting the hard drive.... But when i try to connect DVD combo drive it does detect and also works in computer....

    I have tried to put the BIOS to default setting, also tried to instant flash bios.... i have also tried resetting cmos....

    Please i need urgent help with this problem......

    thank you for your help in advance

    Correct. I do not suggest messing with the bios settings but to fix it, I would navigate through each bios settings to make sure it is the way it should be.
