I'm helping my friend put together his computer, but Win2K isn't seeing his HD (WD400BB) if we use the ATA100 controller. Is there something we need to set in the BIOS to enable this? He installed Win2K by using the standard IDE connector.

Error message:
"Inaccessible BOOT_DEVICE xxxxx".

Any suggestions are welcome.

Also, he got generic RAM (against my recommendations). Can this cause poor performance in Q3? I use Crucial PC133 CAS2 in mine and I have no problems. I thought RAM quality only affected stability and overclocking.
