Ok, now u r clear. Thanks. Time for CCT to finish his beer.
A massive round of applause for Geoscomp!
I missed all the fun. But to recap :)
IDE Operation mode is the setting you want.
I have one more question about this matter... because I m gonna throw away the floppy.
Every time I' ll make Win XP installation to the sata HD, shall I need the floppy drive?
Thanx :) .
It is my understanding that. if you want to install S-ATA drive/s either as Raid or AHCI, you MUST have the S-Ata drivers on a floppy.
If you want to operate your S-Ata drive/s as P-Ata (IDE), then you don't.
Or you can slipstream them into a windows xp sp2 cd.... but I have never personally tried that.
I would keep the floppyQuote:
