i downloaded the manual. is this the area you enabled the sata? i’d
swap cables and try the drive in another rig. your board has raid? is
their a raid bios setup that you could check to see if it appears in
it? i know nothing about intel raid. sometimes one has to set up a
single array for the drive to be recognised.

never seen? i have tried combined mode , enhanced mode , sata with just the
secondary channel enabled for the cd's. tried to boot to a new setup of xp
and it says no hard drive found, tried booting in system and under disk
management it does'nt show up either--since i am new to this, maybe i'll go
buy a new cable? thanks for all and any info "uddarts"

I thought when you boot the WinXP CD and install, you had to hit F6 and

install the third party SATA/RAID drivers from the A:/ floppy drive so
Windows had the drivers to see disk controller.
