It would be helpful to see a dmesg to confirm that this is the problem you're having though. -Bryan. (VMD)

But I did get into the BIOS info for the drive itself so I'll post that in case someone finds it useful.

My Asus ZenBook had a similar issue, which was resolved by diving into the BIOS "Advanced" section and setting the storage controller to something other than the pseudo-RAID mode. It may we worth checking whether there is such an option available.

Problems with HD
I have an Asus Vivobook (1400EA), and the hard drive is not recognized by OpenBSD. I have the same problem on some distros of Linux, but on others it shows up fine. The official Windows driver is here: https://www.asus.com/supportonly/f1400ea/helpdesk_download/ Intel Rapid Storage Technology (IRST) Driver I didn't see any lines in the dmesg about it when booting up the install disk. I love OpenBSD! It's my favorite O/S, so if I could get it installed it would be great! Right now the only thing I think that I could do is get a removable USB drive to install on.
