I had a lot of problems with Win 2003 recognizing drives.  I eventually gave up 
on a clean install.  I did a clean install of Windows 2000 Enterprise Server 
and then did an upgrade to Win 2003, which worked fine.  I'm curious if you 
find the correct solution.

Subject: [windows-2000] S-ATA


hi together,

does anyone have experiences with S-ATA? I want to run one of my two HDDs on 
the SATA-Controller of my mainboard in order to address all drives as Master 
(OS is Win2003-Server). But I wether can see the drive somewhere in the BIOS 
nor when installing Windows.
Now I have installed Win2003 and can go to the managementdialogue for my drives 
and there I see that my Windows at least has recognized that there's more than 
just one HDD. It says "device 1", but declares it as inaccessable or what ever.

So, I can't see or access the second drive on my SATA-Controller on the 
mainboard (ASUS xy :-) - what and where do I have to configure my system in 
order to get the second HDD working properly (ok, I could use the DVD as Slave 
and the two HDDs as Masters on the IDE, but isn't this constallation also 
possible? That's the way it was delivered by the manufactor - except that the 
first HDD was connected to the RAID-Controller - now the RAID -should- be 
disabled and the first HDD is connected to Primary Master IDE)

thankx in advance

Sebastian
