Hi all,
I'm very new here in this forum. well, my problem is that I have an IBM intellistation E Pro PC when I bought a DVD ram drive it does not recogonize it at all. Is it a bios problem?? and if so, can I get update for that bios??

Thanks

have you checked all of your cable connections from you dvd ram drive to your motherboard? And if you want a bios update i need your BIOS ID string.
Use this to find your ID string: http://esupport.com/biosagent/index.cfm

i cannot seem to find a bios upgrade for you. But have you tried to use a controller card, it might help.
