Well, a day of good tips.

If the Rosewill doesn't work in one rig, it should work in the
other.

With all this BIOS talk I'm wondering about one other odd thing.

This on my third machine which is a Mach speed X-caliber with
Celeron 2.93 cpu.

Over the past couple days I made 2 ghost backups of the same
drive, one on the Trinity and one on the Mach Speed.

I only do disk to disk.

The Mach Speed clone took over 7 hours. The older Trinity running the same Ghost program and virtually the same amount of data to copy took a little over 1 hour.

Does my Mach Speed Celeron machine need some sort of fix that I don't know about?
