[QUOTE="JeremyM, post: 49037"] Hm, I said, it wasn't a hard drive problem. Why would you continue to ask me if it is? I'm no idiot, I know which interfaces are what. SCSI sucks too. Also, there's no way that three hard drives that worked 10 minutes before I tried them in the machine busted. Trust me, I am no idiot. EDIT: Sorry, I obviously left things out in my 1st post. On the motherboard, there is an IDE channel, an ULTRA ATA channel, and I had an Ultra SCSI PCI card with an internal port and an external port. I was using that as the SCSI port, there is no SCSI port on the motherboard. It's also a mute point right now anyways, because, well...read on. On a lighter note, I converted it to a PC with not much effort/money. Had to buy a cutting wheel kit for the dremel, and a fan that was 10 bucks at staples (it glows blue, oooo). Anyone would like pictures, let me know. I just need to find a shorter CD-R/RW drive because the mobo's power hits the CD-R/RW drive. Currently, I have no optical drives in, but I'll find one somewhere. [/QUOTE]
