to your first question, with SATA there is no reason to set jumpers or mess with master or slave, for a single HD installation when you boot up it will just recognize it.
For your build, everything looks compatable. If it is not, try to get the burner SATA also. IDE will work, but SATA is the future. Kat

Katreat, you're saying that Mobo will recognize the HD without manually installing the drivers by a floppy?
Also the burner is SATA...just took it out of the box. |

ok, I have everything installed and running, only I cannot get the SATA drivers loaded. The mobo will not recognize my HD. I have the SATA AHCI enabled through the bios but no go.
I am having trouble finding the drivers to install by floppy. Anyone know anything about this> |
