    IDE takes long time to identify


    Hey.
    I recently purchased an SSD and installed it in parallel to my hard drive.
    By the time I installed it, whenever I start my computer, the black screen in the start(BIOS) takes long time to identify which IDE drivers found(It takes a good minute or two to actually start up the operating system).
    The thing is, before I installed the SSD it took no time to start the BIOS and he identified the IDE in no time either.

    I need to know how can I fix it.

    Check to Make sure all the cabled are in properly.

    Try to clear your CMOS, by removing the battery on the motherboard for 5-20 seconds.
