I just had a AMD k7 computer built. I took my 20 Gig HD out and put the 100 Gig in. Now I want to switch back to the 20 Gig HD but now when I boot up it won't auto detect my 20 Gig HD. I have to manually go in everytime I boot up and hit F3 to auto detect my HD. What can I do to get it to automatically boot up so that I don't have to go into the CMOS and detect it everytime I boot.:x

did you just reset the cmos? you can either do it with a jumper or just remove the battery.

I reset it from the jumper once. Maybe I need to try just taking the battery out. How long should I leave the battery out by the way?.......:rolleyes:

probably around 10 seconds at least. if the clock resets, you've done it.

try setting only your hard drives to auto detect and put cdroms to "none".
