Hola Manuel, Are you using ATA-100 or ATA-133 cables to hook your Maxtor to the SIS motherboard. Don't connect your CDROM on the same controller as your HD. What do you have in your /boot/loader.conf. The following are possible. ruby# m loader.conf # -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # userconfig_script_load="YES" hw.ata.atapi_dma="1" ruby# sysctl -a | grep hw.ata hw.ata.ata_dma: 1 hw.ata.wc: 1 hw.ata.tags: 0 hw.ata.atapi_dma: 1 BTW, I have one of those motherboards but haven't tried to replace my gateway with it. I have 4 machines with SIS-645.
