My old raptor has died so I am replacing it with a new Black 640. I removed my ide dvd drive at the same time to run all sata stuff. When I go to install Xp or Vista The Cd will not boot. The drive is a sata Dvdr pioneer. I could use some help with settings to get this thing to boot the cd or dvd. I can stick the old ide drive back in there if I have to but surely I can just change something to get this thing to do right. Thanx for any help and I hope this in the right place I dodnt know whether to put it in here or the OS section.

I went ahead and stuck the ide dvd drive back in and got windows on here. I think the whole problem is with either the board or the bios . If I try to shut down it just restarts and If I hit del and go into bios and change anything ,when I hit save and exit it either wont start or it says cmos error checksum defaults loaded and I lose all my settings.

I set it to every cd and dvd setting to boot first but it never would unless i used the old ide one. I have vista 64 on there now working good. One other thing is it will not boot and keep my bios setting it just says cmos error default setting loaded.

Is your EZ CMOS SWITCH in its correct position?
Do you have your BOOT ORDER set to SATA CDROM as FIRST DEVICE?
Official BIOS versions are up to 17 now, but there is a BETA 18.
