Needs Help on New Setup

[Mr. Elmo]

i dont know if you were being sarcastic or not, but maybe its because the barton is 166

i just wanted two floppies for some reason

Well it seems to me that if you don't *really* have a valid reason for having 2, then you can't really expect a good answer to your post. It's like having two firewalls... sooner or later they're going to conflict.

No sarcasm. Was thinking back to my friends PC, but he must have had a Barton

Did the drivers for the mouse work?

Have you tried looking in the device manager to make sure both floppies aren't in there? Maybe you'll need XP to recognize the second drive.

i think my mobo only handles one floppy because the ide cable i got only with the mobo only has one floppy hook-up,

slow scrolling is usually because of no video drivers being installed.
to scroll right you wil need to download/install the mouse drivers.

two floppy drives is pretty stupid but go into the bios, find the page where it lists all of the connected drives, at the bottom you will have to manually say that a second floppy drive is connected.

I'm think we've had a similar post about using an XP mobile chip with an Asus A7N8X-E board, and I'm pretty sure we came to the conclusion that they didn't work well together.

Can't be sure, but I think it was being built by bigdawgfoxx for mattesca, and they had to return the board and get an Abit one instead.

I did install the mouse drivers from the cd but the scrolling still sux, also i don't really kno how to manually add the 2nd floppy can you helps with that, thanx.
