Others address this more in detail. I think you're essentially right
and it's enabled in the bios, but this still could be a problem area.

Yes, the SATA is intended to be the boot HDD. I might still use the
IDE drive for storage but right now it's my only working boot HDD. I'm
pretty sure the recovery process is fine and I've tried it more than
once.

I'd be willing to do it as a test but I really don't want to have to
start all over with my OS. The image I have created is very clean yet
has all my options and prefrences set up just they way I like them and
all the apps I like are installed as well.

Cables are secured and as DL explains there are 6 inferfaces. I've
tried each type but not all six. Good idea. I'm thinking that it might
be a driver issue afterall as DL and others suggest. >> Stay informed about: Gigabyte 965P S3 problems with SATA Hard Drive - help wanted |

It's correct that I'm not using RAID. As I've said elsewhere I very
much want to avoid installing XP from scratch because I put a lot of
time into creating a nice clean image with all the bells and whistles I
like. Do you know of a way in which I could install these drivers
without having to completely start the install all over? Perhaps the
"repair" function from windows would all this?
> See pages 27.7/8 and page 74.4 on, of your manual
Ah, yes, RTFM. Sorry I missed that. My MB manual doesn't show much on
page 27, but 74 shows me what you're talking about, page 65 being the
start of it. I did have SATA enabled in IDE mode but I'm still missing
the proper win drivers. >> Stay informed about: Gigabyte 965P S3 problems with SATA Hard Drive - help wanted |

It's correct that I'm not using RAID. As I've said elsewhere I very
much want to avoid installing XP from scratch because I put a lot of
time into creating a nice clean image with all the bells and whistles I
like. Do you know of a way in which I could install these drivers
without having to completely start the install all over? Perhaps the
"repair" function from windows would all this?

Ah, yes, RTFM. Sorry I missed that. My MB manual doesn't show much on
page 27, but 74 shows me what you're talking about, page 65 being the
start of it. I did have SATA enabled in IDE mode but I'm still missing
the proper win drivers. >> Stay informed about: Gigabyte 965P S3 problems with SATA Hard Drive - help wanted |
