Question: How do I connect the ATA66/100 cable to my IDE
device(s)?
Answer: The 80-wire/40-pin ATA66/100 IDE cable that came with your
system has two connectors to support two drives. This special cable must
be used to take advantage of the speed the ATA66/100 technology offers.
Connect the blue connector to the onboard IDE header and the other
connector(s) to your hard drive(s). Consult the documentation that came
with your disk drive for details on actual jumper locations and settings.
Question: Why am I getting the message "Pre-Boot Agent Failed"
on the top left of my screen during system boot-up?
Answer: This message will be displayed when the "Console Redirection"
setting in BIOS is either 1) disabled or 2) enabled and there is no modem
cable hooked up to the system. Note that this is not an error message, it is
just to let users that use console redirection know if their connection is
working. See the "Console Redirection" setting in the Advanced BIOS Set-
tings section of BIOS for more information.
