Are the connectors 'keyed' and inserted correctly? Check that Pin1 on the HD is connected to Pin1 on the Mother board. Sometimes the connectors can be installed backwards in the sockets because of missing 'keys'. Look for the 'marked wire' [Doesn't need to be connected to Pin1, but if it is, at one end, then it has to be at the other end also.] Chuck D. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Vintage Macs group.
