Never mind, I was able to solve the issue. I was getting IDE Error #1 (with the BIOS only, Windows didn't have any issues). I downloaded the Optriac software and changed the drive to Reverse ATA. My BIOS doesn't have any issues now...

I have installed the drive (the slot loading Sony one) and I am getting an IDE error. The drive refuses to show up on my computer and the IDE error occurs after my notebooks BIOS boots up. I am not sure what is going on. Sony won't...

Thank you. I went ahead and ordered the last drive I linked to, the $75 slot loading one. It is IDE only. I went with IDE only because I found more documentation about the optical drive that is currently in my notebook. Most...

Price was a major factor for me. I originally had $1500 to spend but my budget increased to $2000. Alienware and other Clevo based computers are nice but they cost an arm and a leg. My cousin purchased a Alienware notebook when all...

The XPS M170 definately comes with the better graphics card. As stated my boomheadshot45, the 7800GTX is the best graphics card you can get in a notebook. The standard 7800 is not as powerful, a 6800 Ultra can still beat the 7800. ...
