I am a little flustered.
I just got a WD SATA Raptor (74GB). I have spent the entire evening trying to install it with no luck. I disconnected my Maxtor HD (ATA) and plugged the SATA Raptor in.
There is no option in the Bios to boot from it and the manual and Asus site have nothing I can find on how to set it up.
After many hours of frustration and browsing the net for solutions I tried entering fasttrack (their Raid software) and it can see the Raptor... I even tried setting up a Raid 0 on the single drive and Windows install could still not see it. Below is a link to my MB overview:
http://usa.asus.com/products/mb/socket478/p4pe/overview.htm
I have the most recent bios (p4pe1007.awd). The system runs fine, I just cannot get Windows to install on the drive. I get to the point where it asks what drive and it says there is none.
Help appreciated
