[mythtv-users] Re: need help.. power failure now no boot

[A JM]

Sorry for prematurely posting the forum and not doing enough research first.
 It appears the BIOS was/is the culprit by not identifying the hardware.
This EPOX (8RDA3I) board has issue's with the IDE channels??? anyone else
have a similar problem?
 Thanks,
