Have an Asus A8V Deluxe MB, have connected a single SATA drive to one of the
SATA connectors and tried to load windows on with the F6 driver thing. The
drive is recognised in the BIOS but when i press enter to intall XP it says
no drive is there to install OS on.
So, I added a single IDE drive and installed XP on this, i then booted up
and added the raid drivers from the motherboard CD, i then used Partition
Magic to copy the XP install from the IDE drive to the single SATA drive,
now when i boot up it gives me the option of starting XP from the IDE drive
or the SATA drive, however when i remove the IDE it says no boot device can
be found, how can i make it boot from the SATA without having the IDE drive
connected??
cheers for any help
