K7T Turbo2 not detecting IDE devices

I just got this board in yesterday from Newegg.com. Floppy drive, fans, etc work fine. But it will not intiate any IDE devices. Hard drive, cdrom, or zip drive. All cables have been checked, hard drive works great, cdrom/s are fine. All bios settings look correct.
Bios does not detect the cdrom or hard drive. All jumpers set correctly. Stand alone for the WD HD on IDE1, and master for the Cdrom on IDE2.
Have tried the HD on IDE2 also. Nothing works.
Is it a bios problem or a bad MB?
Thanks for any Ideas.

Hi,
You try setting the HDD to Master instead of cable select? Make sure you didn't install the IDE cables backwards. Blue header in mobo.

K7T Turbo2 Not Detecting on IDE scan.

Antex 300w.,MSI K7T Turbo 2,AMD AthlonXP 2000+,300mb SDRAM, Maxtor40G (7200rpm ATA/133),NVidiaGeForceMX/MX-400,52xCD/R-RW,16XDVD ROM,Ultra ATA/133 High Speed Dual Channel Controller,WinXP. When I boot this machine it detects on first screen, IDE Detect, as it should. When it gets to IDE scan screen it shows 0 thru 3 "not detected","press esc to continue or ....... to enter setup. then it shows what I call Scan Disk, white/black bar line that goes all white to show progress. It then take alot of time to open XP to desktop. BIOS is set at Optimized selection. What am I missing?? Bad Board? Bad Builder (me)???

Think that line is not showing progress of scandisk, but ending time to make a selection of entering setup or select a bootable device...

K7T TURBO2 not detecting either HD (both WD)

Here's my problem...
I start my computer and it will not load Windows because it does not detect a bootable drive.
My motherboard detects both CDROM drives but does not detect either hard drive. I have the jumper settings on the HD's correct (Master - end of IDE cable, Slave - middle of IDE cable), plugged into IDE Slot 1 (using IDE cable). I've tried the following:
Setting all available jumper settings (Master/Slave)
Using only 1 HD at a time set to Master (removed other HD off cable)
Remove IDE2 (attached to CDROM drives) cable... MB detected no drives(!)
Using a different IDE cable (in case other one was bad).
The BIOS displays the correct CPU speed, RAM and CDROM drives, but it will not detect either HD. I am almost positive that I have everything setup correctly, I've successfully built my own system half a dozen times. It just seems that there is a setting or jumper somewhere that I'm missing (I removed the J17 jumper).
Could the problem lie elsewhere and the result is what I'm seeing with no detection of my HD's? It doesn't seem like my RAM would be the problem, as the system boots up fine, detects all attached RAM, but doesn't detect a bootable drive.
Here's my system...
MB: K7T TURBO2
HD#1: WD Caviar AC310200 (10GB) UATA/66
HD#2: WD Caviar WB300BB (30GB) UATA/100
CDROM#1: Samsung 52x
CDROM#2: TDK 48/24/48 CDR/W
FLOPPY: Generic 1.44 3.5'''
CPU: Athlon XP 1500 (Good heatsink/fan)
RAM: 256 PC133 (Generic)/128 PC133 (Crucial)/128 PC133 (Crucial) = 512 PC133 Total
VIDEO: Hercules 3D Prophet 4000XT
SOUND: None (using built-in on MB)
NIC: D-Link 10/100
PSU: 400W COMPUSA Brand
One last note...
I used all of this hardware (MINUS THE K7T MB) in a previous system and everything worked fine together. My previous MB was a K7S5A and the reason I replaced it with the K7T TURBO2 is because I wanted a better board with more features.
I hope I've given enough details to my problem. I appreciate any help given, thank you and if you have any questions for me, I'll be checking this post often so ask away! THANKS AGAIN!!

I'm very close to buying another board, but the problem is, there are no other boards at my computer store that I can use. If there were I'd try one of them in a heartbeat.
I guess I could buy another board online, but my job is dependant upon my computer working, I can't wait a week while a new motherboard is shipped to me.
I know the problem is not with my board because this is the second K7T I've tried and both gave me the same error. The problem must be with a setting/jumper/other hardware component.
I've tried every Jumper combination possible, still no detection.
The exact error when my BIOS attempts to find a bootable drive (a HD to load Windows) is:
DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER

Problems with IDE2 & 3 not detecting IDE device - going to RAID bios

hi
Ok well after many painstaking hours I finally managed to get the mobo(915G combo) up and running but encounter this problem.
IDE1 (third master) has hard drive on, this loads up ok
But if I connect my dvd rom and dvd writer as master & slave into either ide 2 or 3, I get the RAID bios utility load up and then only sometimes it lets me press the tab key, and all i can do is go in this circle.
If I unplug the cable and then attach a drive to my HDD as a slave this works fine. The mobo bios is currently set for optimized defaults. I know I could keep the drive as a slave on IDE 1 with the HDD but im going to be installing another HDD so will be using this as a slave, so that both HDD's are on one IDE and both drives are on a different IDE.
Can anyone help to try and resolve this?
Thanks

first off i would just like to say thanks for you help, everything is JUST ABOUT working!!
It does seem strange the instruction booklet informs you to put the primary boot device into IDE1 (blue socket) yet this doesnt qwork and you have to put the optical devices into this socket. Everything is now being recognised(within the bios) but I have now updated to XP with SP1 and the only problem i now face is that when the pc loads up it detects both ide HDD within the raid controllers BUT once into windows I can only see the c:/ not the secondary HDD. I dfid try to add this as a slave to the primary master HDD but got error on startup. I have since installed onto the 3rd IDE/RAID as a master and it is detected fine.
Within device manager in XP it shows as a device but i am unable to format the drive or save/map anything to it
Any further ideas?
Cheers

K8N Neo Platinum - Hangs On "Detecting IDE Devices" at POST

My K8N Neo Platinum motherboard died about a month ago. Not having the time or the patience to RMA it, I bought a new one.
I got the new system all setup. The BIOS version on the Motherboard is 1.4
I have a 200gb SATA (NO RAID) HD setup as my boot device, and I also 120gb EIDE setup as a secondary HD.
With my Previous MB, everything worked fine. I had the SATA drive on SATA1, and the IDE as the Master on the 1st IDE Chain. I also have a DVD Drive and a DVD Burner on the 2nd IDE chain. When I set the system up like this this time, the system just hangs at Detecting IDE Devices. It will never boot into Windows. If I unhook the SATA drive, it detects the IDE drive no problem and tries to boot to it, although it doesn't have windows, so it will not boot. If I unhook the IDE drive, the SATA drive boots. That is what I have been doing for the past two weeks, but I would like to access my 2nd Hard drive.
Any Ideas would be helpful.
Thanks!

another thing is never have any other drives in your set up when loading xp to raid
or it writes the mbr to the ide drive not the sata
hence
it detects the IDE drive no problem and tries to boot to it
you have put the sata raid drive first in bios boot order ?

HT1212 I have forgotten my passcode for ipad and itunes is not "detecting a device in recovery mode."

I have forgotten my passcode for ipad and itunes is asking passcode to be entered - even after following directions for computers not synced... multiple times, but iTunes is not "detecting a device in recovery mode." What do I do now?

DFU Restore
This will very likley result in loss of data.
Plug the iPhone into the computer.
Ensure that it is running the latest version of iTunes and that it has access to the internet.
Press and hold both the home and sleep/wake buttons for exactly eight seconds.
Release only the sleep/wake button but continue to hold the home button for another five seconds.
Let go of the home button, then look at the computer screen for an instructional popup.
The popup should say "iTunes has detected a device in recovery mode. . .(etc)" Click accept to all boxes and let iTunes download and install all of the latest device Firmware and Software.
If no popup appears, repeat the above DFU instructions. If you've never done a DFU, it may take about three attempts to get the timing right.

If you get that message, then the device was not reset to factory settings.
Go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content & settings. Then start fresh with your new device.

HT1212 its not detecting my device

iam trying to restore the ipod touch and have done everything asked but its still not detecting my device to restore to factory settings.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Is iphone 4 having issues with Blue tooth?. I have checked four iphone brand new sets from different location. Not detecting other devices

Is iphone 4 Having issues with Blue Tooth connectivity ? Last saturday i have bought up iphone 4, when i checked that device blue tooth was not detecting the other iphones. I went to apple store in Ottawa. They checked with their Mac computers. They said Yes this iphone is having problem. Please exchange it on the store you bought up. I have exchanged that iphone with brand new, again same issues...
iPhone is not detecting other devices with Blue Tooth. I have checked with other two. they having same problem.
Please tell me, What apple gonna do with my iphone now ? Should i keep it ? or cancel my contract with cell phone company. As i am sure they not going to replace it again or gonna make excuses.
Waiting for replies [email protected]

I have upgraded my iphone 3 to a 4. I just recently discovered that while the iphone 3 automatically discovers bluetooth but the iphone 4 does not (couldn't discover any bluetooth). My bluetooth is Jabra SP200. It turned out, there are other steps to take with the bluetooth device to pair with the iphone 4. As stated, iphone 3 detected it automatically. But w the iphone 4, I had to press and hold the answer button of the Jabra for it to pair with iphone 4. Call the bluetooth manufacturer directly and check with their alternative pairing procedures.
Hope this helps.

K7T turbo2 v.5 IDE detection

Greetings,
I just got a K7T turbo2 to replace my K7T pro2a, which did not die but I figured I was living on borrowed time. Anyway when I was setting up my new board yesterday the first time I tried to start it up it would not initialize the primary IDE. Not knowing what else to do I switched cables. This seems to have fixed it and thus far I have not had any other problems. What I am wondering is this; is this a normal thing for this board? I just recently found this forum and in doing a search I found a couple of message discussing this issue. Have I made a poor choice in boards? In my initial research this seemed to be the best Kt133a out there but I am wondering at the moment. Are there other issues that I should watch for and will this IDE situation happen again? Thanks for reading and for any help you might offer. BTW this is only the second system that I have put together.
Dave

More than likely a bad cable, damaged during the mobo swap. They're more delicate than they look/feel. The Turbo-2 is a very nice board, no vices to speak of.

Dv7t Quad - Windows 7 64bit - Internal HP Webcam not detected by Device Manager

New system - one re-install of Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit. All else is running as expected. (SimplePass is even cooperating.) Webcam is missing from the Device Manager.
I believe the onboard (internal) HP TrueVision HD Webcam worked originally (after purchase). I reinstalled the OS (fighting with SimplePass - story not worth telling). Never checked the webcam. Weeks later... The webcam is not detected and is not listed in the Device Manager. Speccy64 (freeware used to detect and monitor all sorts of system specs) does not see the webcam. Skype does not see the webcam. YouCam software does not detect the webcam. Nada, zip, zero: No webcam.
I've already "chatted" with HP, requested, and reinstalled the webcam driver. No luck, there.
BIOS is up to date (F1.A 7/20/2011). (Everything is up to date - the laptop is new and is constantly updated.)
I'm open to the obvious, that of returning to "factory rebuild", but it's a headache to avoid so soon after just getting this beast where I want it. I do have a recovery disk and assuming it has anything more than just more drivers on it, it may be useful if I could figure out how to use it.
Ideas?
Thanks in Advance!
Kind Regards,
Dragon-Fur

There is no harm in recovering your Notebook to factory state but I highly doubt that would fix your issue.
It could be a faulty webcam module which is not been recognized. I suspect you might have to send the Notebook in for a warranty repair to get it fixed .

JMF-based applet can not detect audio devices on Vista (?)

Hi,
As many people reported, I encountered the same issue - CaptureDeviceManager.getDeviceList does not detect any audio device on IE/Vista.
Here is my testing environment:
HP XW4600, RealTek HD Audio onboard sound card,
Vista SP1 (Business, Home Premium, and Vista64)
JRE1.5.0_16, JMF2.1.1e
A recording Applet runs in IE7 (which works fine on XP and its Java application version always works fine on Vista)
I have tried a number of things without success:
1)Use different audio formats as the input parameter for getDeviceList
2)Try CaptureDeviceManager.getDevice(new String("DirectSoundCapture"))
3)CaptureDeviceInfo info = new CaptureDeviceInfo(com.sun.media.protocol.dsound.DataSource.NAME,new MediaLocator("dsound://"),null);
4) Vector devices = (Vector) CaptureDeviceManager.getDeviceList(null).clone();
5)Uncheck UAC(Vista User Access Control)
6)Set IE settings least restrictive
7)Try signed or unsigned recording Applet
8)Pack the recording Applet to a jar and deploy to JRE\lib\ext
9)Run JMFInit and copy the files in JMF\Lib to System32 folder
On a few occasions, audio devices can be detected. For examples,
10)Upgrading an HP XW4200 (XP machine with AC�97 codecs driver) to Vista,
11)1/5 chance on the machines with both Sun JRE and MS Java SDK installed.
12)Trying Item # 9. it worked once on one machine, but after rebuilding the machine, the same trick does not play.
I am wondering if there is a way to let JMF-based applets detect audio devices on Vista or this is an inherent problem with JMF, IE and Vista.
I would appreciate it very much if you�d kindly offer any help and suggestions.

>

A quick test of that is to try the same code as an application.
If the application works, one possible fix is to launch the application using webstart. Webstart will work from a web page, and offers many other advantages over a standard applet.
