No boot with SATA connected
My new dual core system won't boot (shuts down immediately after power on)
only when I connect a SATA II drive's power connector. No problem with PATA
drives. Any ideas? Specs below.
Asus A8n-VM CSM (onboard nVidia GeForce 6150)
1 GB (2x512) Patriot Signature PC3200
Antec NeoHE 430W PS
Hitachi T7K250 SATA II
Only other peripherals are a floppy drive and CD-ROM. I know the PS is a
modular, but is it likely to be the culprit here? TIA.
