Sorry if this has recently been talked about or listed elsewhere. I tried a search, but didnt know how best to word it...
I have an older PII 400 Intel/Gateway 440BX mobo (100Mhz FSB).....I was given a newer Maxtor DiamondMax+ 8 40GB (ATA-133) HD....
I get beeping from the POST as soon as the computer powers up, and if I go into the BIOS, the HD is not detected.
I guess my question is, can you use a faster HD on a slower FSB?
I assume you can use a SLOWER HD on a faster FSB?
TIA for any help....
