    PLS help, problems with my new HD, you know what this means?

    Hi,

    I just bought a new HD. A MAxtor D740X.

    Here are the jumper settings to set the HD to MASTER

    http://www.maxtor.com/products/Diamo...pecs/42094.htm

    But when I set the jumper, like the black one in the pic, my PC won't go further then the bios.

    But when I look at the picture, you see an AC limititaion jumper as well.

    Is that an extre jumper? I mean in the package there was only one jumper.

    Thnx
    Andre

              Well I just only inserted my new HD, so no Master/slave problems...But I don't get it into master My English is not that good, does the pic sais, when you want master, you need 2 jumpers?

                usually maxtor set their hards to master when they sell em...
                maybe your motherboard doesnt support big hards?

                  I have a Maxtor D740X-6L

                  Have 2 drives...

                  the Maxtor is set as my master. IN a TWO Drive computer..
                  will not work unless you have a slave drive pluged in also.

                  the jumper goes in the last set of pins
                  next to the hard drive cable....

                  make sure you have the red of the grey cable (hard drive)
                  pluged in towards the power source...

                  hope this helps...
