dale_nx26 Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Why are my DVD and hard drives seen as 3rd IDE master and slave in the bios? I only have 1 IDE slot on the MOBO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 It is unusual for a motherboard to only have one IDE connector and it could be that the circuitry is such that the BIOS chip sees that as an auxiliary one rather than the two expected to be there or that the SATA circuitry is covering the IDE system.If the computer works OK like this, I wouldn't worry about it.
