Hello everyone! I have an issue that popped up with my recent build that I hope someone can help me with. Everything worked fine for 2 weeks, then one day after logging on to windows my IDE DVD drive and LAN ports would not work. Neither show up at all under device manager.
I checked the BIOS, the only thing different is that it is showing my harddrive as both IDE Channel 0 master and IDE Channel 4 master, and it will not see the DVD drive at all. I tried a different drive (and no drive at all) and nothing changed.
I tried all the tips I could find, disabling the lan ports, restarting windows, shutting down and re-enabling them but still not lan or IDE drive recognition. I reset CMOS, Q-flashed the BIOS to F9b and tried both optimized and failsafe defaults but still no success.
My build: (running Windows XP home)
GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 Yorkfield
OCZ Reaper HPC 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500)
OCZ OCZ700MXSP 700W ATX12V V2.2 / EPS12V SLI Power Supply
EVGA 896-P3-1260-AR GeForce GTX 260 896MB 448-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16
ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 7 Pro 92mm CPU Cooler - Retail
I wanted to see if there was something I could try before RMA'ing the board
Thanks for your assistance!
