Isn't it Mb/s (or maybe mbps ) not mhz ?

Hi Guys, I am also gettin a problem when booting, after it has detected all my IDE drives ithis message displays
"Secondary IDE cable 80 no conductor installed"
It then boots up normally.
What have I gotta do to get rid of this message and am I harming the computer my continuing to use the computer after this message.
I think it is complaining that you have a 40-wire cable, and it wants an 80-wire one.
Without an 80-wire cable the maximum speed (between drive and mobo) will be 33MHz, it will still function but not at maximum performance.
Nope, it really is the bus frequency.
MB/s would imply that was just the data rate and would say nothing about the speed of the command interface. Bus frequency implies the same speed for data AND the command signals.
