|  Re: Intel E6550 Help There is one thing I have experienced on recent Gigabyte boards that you might need to look out for. If the hard drive is SATA and you are trying to use a PATA CD/DVD, it might not work. In my case it would hang. The solution was to use a SATA hard drive and a SATA CD/DVD.

| Colonel Calamity  | Re: Intel E6550 Help I found that by setting the BIOS on my DS3 to (I think) ACHI took care of that problem for me dedgar... I will have to check again to be sure of the exact setting but with my specific build this was not a problem.  Thanks HL and Corsair!
