LETS GO HOME <| sep |> Thanks for linking ! I ' m glad they still worked out for you ! <| sep |> IDE is basically legacy mode for older hardware . That ' s your problem . You want SATA or ACHI mode . If your drive isn ' t booting past BIOS on those modes , you either have an outdated or damagedloose SATA connector that can ' t support SATA III or you have something wrong with your drive . Try swapping out the cable and try a fresh installation of the OS if that doesn ' t help . EDIT You also might need to update your BIOS . <| sep |> The other user backed out . I ' m up for trading Syndicate for Bravely Second . <| sep |> I said The state has had about a year since MaM came out to manipulate the evidence approved for testing . It ' s a fact that the state has had this opportunity so thank you for trying but failing to twist my words and thank you for your wonderful contributions to this sub .
