The other day my unit intermittently would stop working. When this happened last time, I attached the hard drive with the second of the connectors on the cable.
This time at home on closer investigation the hard drive is ticking when the unit tries to boot up + hard disk not found logo. I swapped it over for another unformatted drive, and I got the same thing. Both drives check out ok.
Solder on IDE connector on the mainboard look ok. I'm checking out the rest of the faq, but if anyone else has any pointers in the meantime I would appreciate the help. If it is the bespoke cable, what options are there for getting a replacement?
Regards,
Alexander
