On my ASUS MB, running XP w/ auto update. Athlon 64 +3000 CPU
SATA II is boot drive
2 IDE HD on IDE 1
2 DVD on IDE 2
USB IDE HD for backup
FWIW, 3½ diskette on floppy cable
boots to SATA based on boot sequence in BIOS
I didn't have any trouble loading the SATA drivers while installing XP, just
don't understand why the BIOS doesn't "see" the SATA drive. But, I don't
understand how this stuff really works anyway. It was just a surprise to me
that a 2006 MB needed drivers to see what I understand to be current technology
HD.
