AX8 SATA drives not seen
I'm setting up a AX8 mobo with a 3200 AMD 64 CPU. During booting up WinXP ,
it doesn't detect any SATA drives. I looked in the bios and I didn't see where it detects sata drives? I just built a ASrock dual mobo and it detected the same WD 250gig while booting from winXP with no problems. I'm sure i'm missing somethine simple. Do I put the sata drivers on a floppy and press F6 during the WinXP CD bootup? Thanks in advance, Pete |

I tryed the SATA drivers on a floppy and it uses the drivers during an F6
install, then goes through the windows installing device drivers till setup is starting windows. then windows still doesn't see the hard drive.... "Pete" wrote in message ...
