Afaik every x86 mainboard on the market uses the same interface to ATA drives. On some very new boards, where the 'southbridge' is not supported yet, DMA is disabled, but you should always be able to access the drive with PIO at least. Check if you haven't got the drive in a RAID configuration in the BIOS or something. Theo -- Theo v.
