P4PE Not Recognizing SATA Drive
I have an ASUS P4PE. I am attempting, without success, to make a
Seagate SATA drive work with it. The drive is new and is properly cabled, both power and data. I have four other drives in the computer: three hard drives and a CD-RW. All are regular old IDE/ATA drives. Am I limited to a maximum of four devices? I would upgrade the Promise BIOS, but I cannot figure out which BIOS I want. It appears the 376 BIOS (which I think applies here) is the same as the TX4000? I'm not sure what difference upgrading the Promise BIOS would make. I have flashed the motherboard BIOS. On a DOS boot, FDISK still does not recognize the drive. Seagate's SeaTools Desktop Diagnostic does not find any sign of a SATA drive in this computer. |
