I bought a WD 200Gb drive. The literature from WD says that for Windows XP,
I have to install an Ultra ATA controller as XP won't handle above 137Gb.
I inadvertently missed the instructions and connected the new drive as slave
via my existing motherboard connection and accepted the installation of
'EZ-BIOS'. Now it 'appears' that XP is seeing the new drive as a 200Gb
drive.
I am tempted to leave as-is, but am I asking for trouble if I don't use the
ATA controller?
Thanks,
Steven
