Boot TS - IDE Autodetect Completes

Explanation: The IDE autodetection step is proceeding without a problem, or autodetection is not being used.

Diagnosis: IDE autodetection is not causing the problem. The next step, assuming you have a newer PC that incorporates Plug and Play, is for the BIOS to identify any plug and play devices that are in the PC. Some BIOSes do not print anything here when autodetecting, so if yours does not, don't worry about it.

Recommendation: Select the appropriate option based on what you see the PC present regarding Plug and Play devices.
