A while back now, my friend was working on his motherboard and plugged in his HDD when the PC was on while tidying wiries. Everything turned off and the PC would not turn on again at all. We figured we killed the mobo and set it aside (we tried multiple power supplys and still got nothing other then a short blip of power). Later on we find out that it was an issue with the HDD itself because plugged into another mobo, it caused that PC to do the same thing. So we kept the "dead" mobo handy just in case. Now we put it back in and noticed that the system would not boot from a SATA CD drive and would also not find his SATA HDD (he had an IDE hdd and cd drive that worked fine though). I figure maybe the sata ports got killed? Not sure. Any thoughts? The original fried HDD was SATA if that helps. Hes got windows installed and everything and windows wont see it either. @_@
oh, and he has all the drivers installed and updated.
