and your callin people trolls...get out from under the bridge
But you failed to mention that/make that clear.
It probably was a registry setting that was affecting CMOS.
It would have been interesting to know what would have happened if you had cleared
CMOS and then checked from DOS.
And all that to get rid of few lines in the registry, probably.
I should have made allowances for those of us whose first language isn't
English, you are right.
That's quite an assumption.
I did clear CMOS several times
and I did check from DOS several times.
The results I achieved I recorded and summarised and they still stand.
That's a bit of a leap of faith!
Can you identify which registry lines you are referring to?
It would be interesting to see what they include.
As I mentioned in my original summary, I did carry out
some reg edits
So?
that should have cleared
any error detection
and also should have forced a higher mode onto the drives, but that didn't work.
Are you sure you are really trying to help ?
Your tone comes across as particularly abrasive.
I only provided the link to Alexanders post to put you on a wild goose chase.
Of course you knew that since you are a native english speaker and therefor
are clairvoyant and didn't even bother to look it up. Good for you.
Yeah, so much different from your's.

Our conversation seems to be descending into a flame of sorts - there's a
similarly titled thread in alty.comp.periphs.mainboard.abit which I started
and is getting quite technical.
If you'd like to come over, you might enjoy
joining in with some of the technical discussion to do with
ESCD clearing.
There's some people who have also come up with some good ideas ( a couple of
which are a little difficult to follow)
If you're interested, have a look for posts entitled "Fixed it! was AI7 and
ATA100 hard drive" dated yesterday (14th September).

to FOAD and STFU, so I reasoned they'd tell him -
more effectively than I ever could.
