Hi, I recently installed a SATA drive on my MB (Biostar M7VIZ Via KM400 Southbridge chipset?(forget the number)) The MB supports SATA 1.5mbps

Anyhow, I ghosted (disk copy) my XP system to the SATA drive that was formerly on an IDE drive on the same system.

XP came booted up fine on the SATA drive (after depowering the IDE drive), but it is listed as a SCSI drive.

I see that Biostar has some SATA drivers the web page for my MB....

But as I don't plan on doing RAID, so I care if XP uses the SCSI driver or not? http://img.tomshardware.com/forum/ [...] /icon5.gif

Thanks,
Larry

Not really, it's going to function pretty much the same. If it puts your mind at east you can use the drivers from BIOSTAR, but XP will still probably report that it's an SCSI device :D.
