If anyone knows how to get a Compaq Presario (Desktop) 5004US machine to behave I’d like to hear it. The HDD failed, we got another one that supports the newer ATA133 protocol. Since the machine is old enough to not be up to standard, we picked up a Belkin Ultra ATA133 card to go with it. Thing is, the Compaq BIOS isnt allowing the card to broadcast the presence of our shiny new 120Gb HDD attached to it, and is complaining about not being able to find an operating system, when (strangely enough) the Windows install happily used the ATA133 card and installed just fine.
Grr.
