I finally bought a WD 120gig sata drive just for extra storage. When I first
installed it, WinXP didn't see the drive until I put in sata raid drivers. I
didn't know my mobo had raid? Anyway, after I put in the raid drivers the
sata drive worked fine. I partioned and formatted it in windows. But now my
IDE drives (40gig Maxtor, primary and 80gig WD, secondary) have errors in
device manager. And my PC keeps trying to install a hdc driver. I assume
it's a hard drive controller driver. But it can't find the driver. I put VIA
4.51 drivers in and that didn't help. So far the IDE drives work fine, I
just need to find what hdc driver it's asking for? It goes through
installing primary and secondary drives on every bootup and ends up saying
it can't install the hdc. In device manager under (IDE ATA/ATAPI
controllers) I had 2 unknown devices and 1 VIA Bus Master IDE Controller.
What drivers is it asking for if it's not the VIA chipset drivers?

Thanks for any help :)
