Well, you were right. The cables were the wrong way. The person who built this machine claimed to have put everything together the right way. As a, until now, trusted technichian I took his word for him putting the blue end in the controller. He worked two full days not finding the error! This person now works for UN as head of communications and computers in Basrah, Iraq. If he makes the same quality of work there as he did on this computer, Saddam WILL get the power back due to poor communications between UN and others :) Obviously anyone can get an employment within UN. Do I have to mention he is no longer an empolyee in my company? My boss sacked him! // Bjorn >> >> Is there anyone who has an answer to why my disks only goes up to ATA-33? >> The disks are ATA-100 but the controller doesn't get that! > >The most obious answer is already in your dmesg : > >> ad4: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 cable or device > >Are you using 80 pin cables and are they attached correctly?
