failed hdd password, drive 2 not found: parrallel ata
LockedDell optiplex gx280 I have a hdd password put on it,I know the password and I know I’m putting it in correctly, but it keeps telling me it’s wrong. After every few attempts I get the message drive 2 not found: parallel atta port 0. I know this is one of my 2 CD-Rom drives, the down side is I am unable to access the bios or the boot setup screens. My question is, is the hhd password preventing me from accessing the setup/bios menu? I’m going to check the voltages on the power supply and replace the ribbon cable tomorrow. I have resented all connections and replaces the motherboard battery. Also if it’s not the ribbon cable or power supply what are my options?
