Since installing an eSATA external hdd which is connected to my PC via a PCI
host adapter card, I get the message
"No device found!
BIOS not installed"
on boot up, if I start/restart my PC with the eSATA ext hdd switched off.
The PC then continues to boot up normally and my system runs just fine. But I
want to resolve the issue that is causing the message to be displayed. Do I
have to change something in the BIOS? Please advise?
Note: But if the eSATA ext hdd is switched ON when I boot up my PC, I do NOT
get the above message or any other warning. I get one saying something like
IDE .....# detected....
