HI i got new equipment for my pc.

- ASUS A8N-SLI Premium
- AMD 64 3800+
- Geforce 7900GT

i changed all this things and want to install my SATA HDD. I installed all drivers wich were send with Motherboard but the SATA HDD is not visible. When i boot the SATA is shown. I also configure these HDD to JBOD for single run but not visible in Windows XP.

Im so angry about that. Smile

If u know some good advises plz tell me.

THx Larry

how meny hd's u do have?
to witch ports u pluget them?
did u changed default sata usage from raid to ide ?

on most motherboards pots beside 1 and 2 arent locked so hdd may have problems with working on overclocked bus

if yor sata control work in raid mode u will not see hdd, until u make from it logical drive in raid managment software

SATA problems

I have almost the same PC Larry...

- ASUS A8N-SLI Premium
- AMD Athlon 64 4200+ X2 2.2Ghz Dual Core
- Geforce 7800GT Pci Express 256 MB
- 2 HDD, 1 Sata, 1 IDE...

And i have no problems with SATA drivers, maybe u can try to see the Motherboard manual, remember to plug the sata cable to the SATA ports NOT SATA Raid, unless u have SATA Raid enable on the HDD's, The SATA ports are the Black ones and the SATA Raid's are the Red ones.. other thing did u upgrade the BIOS?? maybe if u upgraded the BIOS u have to enable SATA drives... in the default BIOS ,u just have to install the SATA drives...does the BIOS detect all the HDD's??...let me know if i can help more...peace...

ROFL!

Never F***ed with a SATA drive, but I would imagine they would still have jumpers on them like with IDE/SCSI drives.

Might wanna give the jumpers a once-over check to be sure you have the drive jumpered correctly, lol.... caused me many a headaches on IDE drives... Laughing

That would be a REAL good reason that the BIOS doesn't even recognize the drive.
