has a cool little button on the back that lights up red and boots you into BIOS
hardware boot kinda, love that!

almost got it now...
any help much appreciated I'm so close with this build now finally

installed
marvell 91.xx sata 6G or did i? the next button never enabled
.
the bios IS seeing the sata drive...

messing with the bios bit by bit

DETECTED sECONDARY sata dEVICE:
so toshiba dt01aca050[/b]


so the drive is there
but when I click on C: and then select FORMAT
it's saying a wire is loose maybe or some bs
(I already know it's seeing the device)

a paradox it appears, but probably not
