I've recently built a new PC based on the ASRock Z77 Extreme6 motherboard. I've installed Windows 7, and I bought each of these adapters:
Rosewill SATA to IDE:

SYBA SATA to IDE:

In Windows 7, the drive when connected to the SYBA shows up just fine. The Rosewill, however, does not seem to work well. The drive shows up in the Disk Management as an unknown drive. The same physical hardware setup, the drive shows up just fine in the BIOS, Windows 7 installer, and in Linux. The same setup, but the drive plugged into the ASMedia SATA controller, works fine (and shows up in Windows 7).
I've got the latest drivers for the Intel chipset. I just find it odd that the only place the Rosewill adapter does not seem to work is in my install of Windows 7. Are there any driver settings that I'm missing?
Regards,
Ryan
Edit: I should note I've tried this with several IDE hard drives with the same outcome. The Rosewill adapter connected to my DVD burner shows up just fine in Win7.
