I am trying to add a Seagate Barracuda SATA drive to my system in preperation to upgrading someday. The system recognizes the drive and I can store data on it. The problem occurs when I disconnect the ide hd and try to install XP pro on it and make it a boot drive. If I enable the boot rom in the bios, it will hang up during the boot. When I try to install XP it will not recognize the drive. I have put the sata driver on a floppy disc and loaded them during the initial installation, but on the reboot it does not recognize the sata drive. I am using an Abit an7 mb with latest bios (19), AMD 2000+, 1 gb ram. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve
