turns out the primary ide connector on the motherboard was faulty.. just plugged the hdd as secondary and it works awesome. but no cd-drive :swear:

Personally, I’d get that motherboard replaced. Your friend paid for a fully working motherboard, and that’s not what he has.
For BIOS beep codes, check out BIOS Central.
