You probably need to get into the BIOS and _disable_ SATA Native Support. Each BIOS is going to call it something different, so you may have to hunt around. If that doesn't do it for you, you'll probably need to surf over the drive manufacturer's site and grab the drivers for the OS you're running. This is a common problem with XP. -- Scott Loveless http://www.twosixteen.com/fivetoedsloth/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
