Computer worked fine at first.

HDD plugged into the Primary IDE controller.
CD-rom plugged into Secondary IDE controller.

Today the computer wouldn’t find the hard drive.

Found out it won’t find the hard drive as long as the cdrom is plugged
into the secondary ide.....with just the hard drive plugged into
primary it loads fine.

Is this a sign the motherboard is going bad ?
