Does anyone understand about problems with Hard Disk Controller? I just bought a new mobo (ASUS P4PE), P4-2.53GHz, and 512MB DDR333 PC2700. I am still waiting for my new Hard Disk (Seagate Barracuda 120GB), so in the meantime, I tried using my old hard drive to run my new rig. But on start (I'm using Windows 2000), I always get this blue screen saying about a problem with my Hard Disk Controller, and I should uninstall any new component if the problem persist.
That's why I didn't go online the whole weekend (and it's a long weekend cause last Monday is a public holiday!) trying to solve the problem. I ended up going back to my old rig so I can do my every day computing. My guess is my Hard Disk is not compatible, because on my old mobo, it supports up to DMA33, but in my new mobo, it supports only DMA66/100. But when I read my old Hard Disk spec, it is a DMA66!
