Extra beeping on bootup

I put together a used system from some parts. My Primary Drive 0 is 10 GB, Primary Drive 1 is 6 GB.

I also have a floppy and a CD Burner. When I boot up it's beeping with a Secondary Hard Disk Drive 1 not found error message.

All the drives work fine.

I don't know if I have the cable hooked up wrong, wrong order, or who knows what.

It's a modified Dell Optiplex 110. Does anyone have any ideas what's wrong?

Thanks,
Andy

  • Hi,

    I'm guessing they are IDE drives. Did you set the secondary drive as slave and the primary as master (using the jumper pins on each drive)? Also check the CD drive too - make sure you don't more than one master etc. on each channel.

    I have already done that.
