bios not installed / no drives detected!!!
i have an error message that my bios not installed because there are no drives attached. I disconnected and reconnected the IDE or SATA cables as well as the bios battery.
it has been a compounding problem that started when i upgraded to SP2. after that i couldn't boot up. different image error message or something like that. then i used windows xp home instead of pro to try and resolve it and then received "missing \system32\hal.dll." :-/ THEN i was fooling around with some wires on the motherboard and i heard a little buzz and a little red led light up, which now remains. it reads as a "ram led." Ever since, the hard drives won't detect.
all of your help is sooooo appreciated! i bought this system from someone for video editing. i know some, but not too much about hardware.
i have four WD 250GB HD's, A GA -8INXP titan 667, 1200a RAID controller, gigabyte DPS, PNY nVida Quardo 4.
thanks a bunch!!!
