CPU and slowly pull the CPU upwards. This may require careful firm tugs to
pull the CPU out of its slot.
5. Connecting IDE and Floppy Drives
The colored stripe on a ribbon cable should be plugged into Pin 1. The primary
IDE connector is black; the secondary IDE connector is white. In most cases,
this is the proper way of connecting your IDE cable to the hard drive. Figure
2-13 on the following page shows the IDE cable properly connected to the
motherboard. Contact your hard disk drive manufacturer or documentation for
more information.
Some symptoms of incorrectly installed HDDs are:
Hard disk drives are not auto-detected: may be a Master/Slave
problem or a bad IDE cable. Contact your vendor.
Hard Disk Drive Fail message at bootup: may be a bad cable or
lack of power going to the drive.
