That seems to be the problem, i.e., the bios doesn't "see" it.  I have it
as a slave on the primary controller(secondary controller nonworking).  I
set it to autodetect and to "none."  And on boot up I get the error
message, CD Rom atapi drive not detected.??  I don't know if this 4x drive
is Atapi or not, it is IDE.  It has worked on other systems in dos.  I have
a Phoenix bios 4.04 in this P75 unit.  Help. . .
