Hi, have just built myself a new pc and cant get operating system installed.
Motherboard is an Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 with an AMD FX 8320, 8Gb corsair
vengeance 2x4 @ 1600Mhz.Powered by ******** Black edition 750w modular psu
which I believe is made by OCZ, was taken from my old pc which worked fine, psu
only 12months old.Case is a coolermaster storm enforcer. Everything seems to work
fine except there doesn't seem to be any power going to DVD Rom (brand new
Lighton) or the HDD Seagate barracuda 7200rpm.Have tried alsorts of settings
within the UEFI bios but I dont really understand the available settings. Want to install
Windows 7 from disk. At the moment i have separate cables coming from psu going
to HDD and DVD Rom but have also tried them in a loop on same cable. Board has
6 sata ports but recommends connecting said drives to 5&6, tried them all. Need
someone with knowledge of the bios on these Asus boards and knows what
settings i should select in Bios. Im pretty new to most of this so please go into detail
if you can. have a gainward 650ti boost gpu attached as well, when i unplug it tells
me to reconnect at startup before going into bios. Thats everything I can think of, any
help would be massively appreciated.ODDand HDD not seen in Bios. Thank you all.
