I would recheck the chip and it's solder points. Maybe you have a cold solder joint, looks connected but under magnifier you may see a break. What happens when you change banks... can you get the flashbios to boot? Does it boot with the chip disabled? After changing to a newer large drive you should still get the flubber intro, then it would give an error since the drive has nothing on it.

hey buddy

i used to have the same problem as you - have a muck aroudn with the 2 power cables for the hdd and dvd drive. When i had this problem it was because my dvd drive power cable was only half plugged into it i think it short circuited and wouldnt boot

this might not work but give it a shot
