Hi, I'm building my first computer so be gentle.
After reading about them I decided to use SATA drives. Bought two WD 120 GB drives, no IDE drives. Using Asus A7N8X Deluxe motherboard w/ built-in SATA support.
Put everything together, it all works fine except no hard drives found in BIOS. BIOS seems to be looking only for IDE drives, and I can't figure out how to get it to look for SATA. Do I need an IDE drive too?
I bought SATA drives in OEM version (stupid me) so didn't get any utilities or instructions. What do I need and where do I get it? I went to WD site but not sure what to get.
Thanks in advance, all help welcomed.
