Doesn't seem to be anything. There is an option for SCSI but it's disabled.
The only enabled device is the HDD (and I tried all the HDDs one by one). If
I enable the floppy, that boots ok, even with the SATA drive connected.
I've also done some testing on the memory and disks and everything seems ok.
I tried installing the most up to date bios from Silicon Image but no
difference. Also tried a couple of different versions of the bios for the
motherboard.
