I got an older PIII-800 from Jerry Rash with a MSI 6309 motherboard recently to replace
my Intel SE-440BX2 motherboard with a PII-800.

The good:
I swapped out my old Intel board/PII-400 myself :)

The bad:
The BIOS of the MSI motherboard does not detect the drives (after I altered the boot
sequence). I didn't change any jumper settings on my drives (HD, CD-ROM,
CD-R/RW).

It just hangs on "WAIT..." after I changed the boot sequence, then when I went into the
BIOS again, that's when I noticed that the drives do not auto-detect.

The HD and the CD-ROM are plugged into IDE1 (the blue connector).

The CD-RW (a Plextor) is plugged into IDE2 (the white connector).

Any suggestions? TIA.
