I'm wondering if it's possible to boot to a single SATA drive connected to the ICH5R SATA controller (SATA0_SB) when there are devices connected to the ICH5R IDE controller (IDE1).
I have a dvdrw connected to IDE1 as master and a Seagate SATA drive connected to the ICH5R SATA controller via SATA0_SB and can't for the life of me find the combination of bios settings to boot from this drive. I can install XP Pro sp1 (partition, format, install) to it fine but I just can't get it to boot that drive.
I've heard that the ICH5R controller has conflicts if hard drives are on both SATA and IDE but do cd/dvd/atapi devices get in the way too? Has anyone managed to get this kind of setup to work?
