Dell Optiplex 110 sometimes doesn’t detect the Hard Drive

by eraser3498 . Updated 20 years, 1 month ago

I have a Dell Optiplez 110 and just replaced the hard drive in it. (old drive Maxtor 40Gig New Western Digital 80) Now sometimes for whatever reason the drive is not detected in the bios it says unknown device on IDE Master. It was working well before and I haven’t made any other changes. I suspect bios battery or ribbon cable, are there any other things I should be looking at? The bios is the most recent one A09. Any information you can provide is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
