Yes, that's it, no optical drives on your motherboard, only HDDs. Put all your roms on that controller, no matter it's a CD drive or DVD drive

Hi,

I also have problems with starforce protected games. So you tell me, when i buy a pci ide controller card and connect my dvd rw writer en dvd rom onto that card. The games should be working??? Also, when that is done, how do you tell to the computer too disconnect the card or something. When the pci card is installed, what goes on from there? Please help me. Thank you

Hi all, hope someone here can advise me, if i only connect my cdrom to the IDE card i get a boot disk failure, however if i also connect my HD also to the card all runs fine BUT all my ribbon cables are now too short, i was hoping just to run my roms from the PCI card and keep the HD on the motherboard, how do i set this up ?
