Intel G33 motherboard's AHCI not detecting hard disks

I was/am still being puzzled by the mysterious loss of CMOS data in that motherboard. I had replaced the power supply with a Antec 430D as well as the CR2032 battery, didn't help.

Especially as it could be a hardware issue or a software issue. Paul |

It'll turn it into a computer you never want turn off (you'll get tired soon of setting up the CMOS every time it boots). I may have a little of that weirdness accompanying a 2-SATA header on my AMD Gigabyte -- though more to do with these large terabyte drives (and an extra PCI SATA controller slotted). Next board is going to have 6 or 4, at a minimum, SATA headers. Just lost my NEC 40" display after about 5 years use, in between that last post to you and now. Took a 32" SYNTAX LCD display across the room and now I'm back on a 19" Samsung. Talk about weird - that SYNTAX is almost twice as old as the NEC. Almost jumped on a new 32" LG LED, but it was HDMI only and I want a VGA connector included. Take a little getting used if I stay at 32" on the multimedia, but I want something bigger for here. Might be time to think IPS, not just that, but a 26" display I think I'd like (the 32" was a hair too big for close-up computing). |
