RE: While booting up I accidentally uninstalled my primary ide channel...

" OK, I looked back to your earlier posts and you said the Primary IDE Channel shows up in device manager, just without IRQ."

correct

"Is enabled but you can't use your DVD drive, is that the problem?"

I can't tell. I put a cd in the drive and it seems to rotate but nothing happens but I don't get an error message.


"Check Primary IDE Channel properties to see if the drivers are there and working, then check the resources tab (in properties box) to see if there's an IRQ assigned."

Checked propperties and it says device working properly. No irq assigned. Under Advanced Settings it says Not Applicable under Current Transfer mode for device 0 and 1.

"Also it may be that the IDE controller is disabled by BIOS - Integrated Peripherals "On-Chip SATA Mode" being set to non-combined. Try changing to "Combined" and see if that alters anything."

Did not change anything
