Ex. CMOS JUMPER

This is the CMOS JUMPER that you will find on your board

it is a 3 pins that is close on the CMOS battery

1 means it is the pin 1

if the setting of the pin is 1-2 NORMAL

pins 2-3 it means CMOS clear or Password Clear.

This is the IDE CONNECTOR interface.

IDE1 Primary Master/Primary Slave

IDE2 Secondary Master/Secondary Slave

This is the IDE BELT
the color in the right side of the belt indiacates pin1.










The color light Blue on the Board is the SATA port

This is the SATA Cable

Note: What is the difference between? ATA and SATA?

ATA- When you installed a hard disk on your board you had to set the jumper settings on it. either master or slave and sometimes it cannot be detected. other hard disk is not compatible on master or slave or the problem is on your ide belt or worst is on your ide connector.

SATA - thats why sata is now been out for new Mother boards it is auto detect to master or slave and fast file transfer.
