Re: Hardware Problem



I thought the same thing, and a number or other group members have
expressed similar views.  I have checked the cable and it is plugged in
as correctly as I can make it.  I looked at the manual for my
motherboard and it specifically shows where the number 1 pin should be;
the cable is plugged in accordingly.  I also tried switching the way the
cable was plugged into the disk drive but that did not help either.
