IBM PC140 - Setup incorrectly shows two CD ROM drives

Applicable to: World-Wide

Symptom :
IBM PC 140 Series 6260 systems may incorrectly display 2 CD-ROM drives installed after installing a single CD-ROM drive on the Secondary IDE port as MASTER.

Problem Isolation Aids :
The IDE Drives Setup screen in the Setup Utility may correctly display the newly installed CD-ROM drive on the Secondary IDE port as "Adapter 1 Master" and falsely display a CD-ROM drive at "Adapter 1 Slave." The System Summary screen also detects the extra CD-ROM drive.

Fix :
Update the Flash BIOS to level 24A or higher.
