On my Asus P5GD1, I have AMI Bios 0713 according to my system
information. The other numbers I keep seeing are ACPI Bios rev
1007.013, and at bootup for the IDE scan, I get
IT8212 ATAPI Bios V1.7.1.56. Win XP
Pro SP2, PC4, 1 GB RAM.
I want to install a fresh copy of Windows XP but the boot menu does
not list the sole optical drive in the boot menu, a DVD rom drive. All
I get is the floppy drive and the main hard drive. A secondary hard
drive does not show up either.
So any reason why it would not be showing up in boot menu? I bought
the motherboard last year so it should boot from the CD and I update
the BIOS faithfully. Any help gratefully appreciated.
